“Truths and Contractions is truly a remarkable read, as it’s a boots-on-the-ground inside look at life in Afghanistan. With every word, I felt like I was there. At times I held my breath or tears welled in my eyes as women’s stories were shared. …It’s astonishing how little I really knew before reading this book. The world is in crisis, and Afghanistan has and is experiencing that crisis on an extreme level.”
