Description



Book Synopsis



With warmth, honesty and a keen eye for the unspoken, this debut collection opens the door to everyday life in Afghanistan during a time the world was watching - but not always listening. Through twelve short stories, some previously published or recognized in major literary competitions, we are introduced to a vivid cast of voices: women, men, children, animals, and even objects, each with a story to tell.

Adding another layer of cultural richness and social commentary, the collection also showcases original illustrations by ArtLords, a grassroots artist collective from Afghanistan. Written by an Afghan Canadian author who spent her childhood in Canada and much of her adulthood in Kabul, Your War, Our Lives invites readers to sit down, slow down, and see a country not through the lens of war, but through the eyes of those who love and call Afghanistan home. These are stories that press against the flattening weight of a single narrative, reminding us that the story of Afghanistan is many things at once.
