More DescriptionThe book is a narration of events as they occurred during a tumultuous period in recent Afghan history, from early 2000 to 2002. It describes the life as it was lived by the high and low during the last years of the Taleban rule under Mullah Omar. The ground realities as seen first-hand by the author, not what was projected by the world media, have been described in some detail. The author was physically in Kandahar around that time, travelling all over the country from there while working for an NGO trying to revive the old, damaged and destroyed industrial base of Afghanistan. This is a story of the so-called collateral damage of War on Terrorism after September 11 and the subsequent political fallout that engulfed the country, dragging many unsuspecting innocent victims with it.A Tragedy of Deception is an eye-opening and must-read book for all those interested in recent world events which may change the course of history and have an impact on people all over the world.
