Jeo is newly married and a dedicated medical student, while Mikal, in love with a woman he can't have, has adopted the life of a vagabond. Nonetheless, when Jeo decides to slip across the border into Afghanistan to help civilians caught in the post-9\/11 clash between American and Taliban forces, Mikal goes with him. But their good intentions cannot keep them out of harm's way. A piercing portrayal of lives upended by war, \u003ci\u003eThe Blind Man's Garden\u003c\/i\u003e is an unflinching look at a world in which the line between enemy and ally is indistinct, and the desire to return home burns brightest of all.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNadeem Aslam is the author of three highly acclaimed novels: \u003ci\u003eSeason of the Rainbirds, \u003c\/i\u003ewhich won a Betty Trask Award and was long-listed for the Man Booker Prize; \u003ci\u003eMaps for Lost Lovers, \u003c\/i\u003ewinner of the Kiriyama Prize, short-listed for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award, long-listed for the Man Booker Prize, and named a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003eNotable Book; and, most recently, \u003ci\u003eThe Wasted Vigil, \u003c\/i\u003eshort-listed for the Prix Femina Étranger and the Prix Médicis Étranger.
