"Eileen witnessed some of the worst days of Afghanistan's deadly factional conflict and not only survived but assisted thousands of Afghans whose lives had been turned upside down" - Michael Semple. "PRAYER FOR AN INFIDEL is as we have in our Persian language, called 'Safar Nama' means journey letters, wherein the writer records the events of an age for future generations" - Ahmad Zia Langari.
