| Shortlisted for 'The Age' Book of the Year Praise for 'The Carpet Wars' 'Will outlive its timeliness and join the ranks of those other two classics, Eric Newby’s A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush, and V.S. Naipaul’s Among the Believers.'— Pat Baskett, New Zealand Herald 'A richly investigated chronicle' — Tracy Lee Simmons, Washington Post 'Certain to become one of the publishing events of the year…in dry good humour, Kremmer takes us cross- legged on a panoramic ride, from the tragic present to a complex past.' — Jefferson Penberthy, The Bulletin 'If you read no other non-fiction book post-September 11, don’t miss this one....a source of vivid, unexpected pleasure—sharp as the air in the Afghan mountains. — Morag Fraser, The Age 'An informative and charming book.' — Christopher de Bellaigue, Times Literary Supplement 'Buy it, read it, savour it.' — Daniel Lak (BBC) Biblio |
