The Kabul Notebooks
Two decades of dispatches from Afghanistan, assembled from the notebooks Abdullah Jan carried between Kabul, Kandahar, and the border crossings in between.
The Kabul Notebooks collects the reporting of a correspondent who kept returning — through the Taliban years, the long occupation, and the withdrawal that closed the chapter. It is less a history than a record of what the city looked like from the street on the days the story broke.
Written from field notes, interview transcripts, and the marginalia of a working journalist, the book moves between the ministries and the neighbourhoods, tracing how each announcement landed on the people it was announced about.
