The Swallows of Kabul (Burung Camar dari Kabul)

Khadra captures both the brutality and tenderness of life in Kabul. I wonder what inspired the focus on these personal stories amidst the chaos.

Their struggles felt so raw and real, but I was also left wondering how much of their resilience was based on hope or necessity.

The historical backdrop adds so much depth, and I'm curious whether Khadra aimed to shed light on a specific event or era.
