This incredibly powerful novella sheds light on the extreme difficulties being faced by the everyday people living in the conflict zones of Pakistan and Afghanistan. Security issues, loss of businesses and the closure of schools by extremists in what was already a deprived area, has made the madrassas an attractive alternative and, a seemingly fitting solution to these devastating problems. Written from the viewpoint of the young, innocent children (and their families) who are driven to these madrassas because of ongoing political conflict and a lack of government control in these areas, the book highlights how these blameless bystanders are being brainwashed into becoming suicide bombers. Frankly depicted, heartbreakingly honest, this is a story which will resonate with every human being the world over.
