Non-Fiction Memoir
Now a Major Motion Picture titled Whiskey Tango
Foxtrot starring Tina Fey, Margot Robbie, Martin
Freeman, Alfred Molina, and Billy Bob Thornton. From tea with warlords in the countryside to parties with
drunken foreign correspondents in the “dry” city of Kabul,
journalist Kim Barker captures the humor and heartbreak of
life in post-9/11 Afghanistan and Pakistan in this profound
and darkly comic memoir. As Barker grows from awkward newbie
to seasoned reporter, she offers an insider’s account of the
region’s “forgotten war” at a time when all eyes were turned
to Iraq. Candid, self-deprecating, and laugh-out-loud funny,
Barker shares both her affection for the absurdities of
these two hapless countries and her fear for their future
stability.
