THE BLIND MAN’S GARDEN by Nadeem Aslam



THE BLIND MAN’S GARDEN by Nadeem Aslam
Jeo and Mikal, foster brothers from a small Pakistani town, secretly enter Afghanistan, not to fight with the Taliban, but to help care for wounded civilians. But it
soon becomes apparent that good intentions can't keep them out of harm’s way. On the other side of the spectrum is the family they left behind. Their blind father is haunted by the death of his wife and by the mistakes he may have made in the name of Islam and nationhood; then there’s Jeo's wife, whose steely resolve to fight all odds that keep the household running, and her overly superstitious mother.
