Kabuli Days: Travels in Old Afghanistan

In 1970, with America in the midst of terrible political turmoil--and Edward Field himself going through a difficult period in his personal life--the poet traveled to Afghanistan, which, as he has said, "was the furthest place I could imagine on earth to escape to." "Kabuli Days" chronicles Field's experiences--the beautiful and the tragic, the poignant and the devastating in this faraway country.
