A broken artist has to explain the Afghan Constitution to the overwhelmingly illiterate population through comic books featuring the adventures of a war orphan. He has about 24 hours to catch up on the history, politics, customs, problems, and the Constitution of a country he knows nothing about. Also, Kabul is kinda freaky people get kidnapped, it s cold as hell, and the threat of violence is omnipresent. Wild brilliantly explores the differences between the Afghan cultures around him and his own.

Industry Reviews

"French cartoonist Wild was on the verge of homelessness when he received a job offer that would take him to Afghanistan. His travelogue explores life in the country with candor and humor, particularly the places where the cultures diverge and, sometimes, overlap. " - Barnes and Noble, "The Best Comics & Graphic Novel ""Exuberant. . . . a textured travelogue that mixes the open drawing style and self-mocking voice of Guy Delisle with a cynical, Rajiv Chandrasekaran-like takedown of insular war zone expat life."" - Publishers Weekly
