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.
