Frank Andriat “ROSE AFGHANE’’

Today I want to present you a book I've just read. Six young Afghan girls tell -with emotion and modesty- a moment of their life. Despite the war, despite the exile, despite death, they talk about their country in a very poignant way.
6 teenagers - 6 Afghan roses, tell us their adventures through a key moment of their existence, They live between violence, religion, extremism, war, family, exile and hope .
I really enjoyed discovering these 6 stories: the fate of these adolescent girls is often tragic but always filled with the feeling that a better future is possible, they only knew the war.
Farzana, who had chosen to rebel by admitting her love to the handsome Noorullah, can’t stand that his family betrothed him to another girl.
 Najmah, who lives in Paris, doesn't dare to ask her father why he looks so sad and why he finally left Afghanistan despite the fear. But she manages to discover his secret…
 Mariam realizes that her brother becomes a terrorist but she doesn’t know how to tell it to her father.
Chekeba and Sharif, who clandestinely left the country in the direction of France, have to answer a questionnaire of a French civil servant about the circumstances of this flight. They can’t say everything…


Although their adventures are different, mamy common aspects are visible and this is the beauty of this volume.
