Fantastic and Intriguing
Thank you AADL, for whomever put this book out on display in the West Graphic Novels section. I just happened to pick it up. It's a compelling story, and the combination of photos, writing, and cartoons made me want to read it several times, perhaps with a magnifying glass for some of the smaller photos. The book gave me a much better understanding of the Afghan people and a HUGE appreciation for Medecins Sans Frontieres/Doctors Without Borders.
