'A brilliantly portrayed landscape' Guardian

'Memorable, provocative, full of interest' Literary Review

'A touching tribute to a nation which survives, miraculously, on hope against hope' Sunday Times

During the Eritrean struggle for independence from Ethiopia, four Westerners travel under Eritrean rebel escort through a land of savage beauty and bitter drought towards the ancient capital of Asmara.

Each is on a personal mission, all are irrevocably changed as they bear witness to the devastation of war as well as to the Eritreans' courage and humanity in the face of constant attack.

'It is a tribute to the power of his narrative that his book reads as the factual account of a journey behind the lines, in the course of which a forgotten history is given flesh and blood' Observer

'Compelling . . . invigorating' Time Out
