Homebody/Kabul"Present day Kabul. The Homebody is a bored, emotionally imprisoned but wildly intellectual English woman who finds refuge and escape in the alternate world of Afghanistan, exoticized in her mind's eye with the help of an out-of-date guide book. Her mysterious disappearance prompts a search by her ineffectual husband, and her emotionally detached daughter, who arrive unprepared for the adventures that await them"--Back cover note. |
