War is a racket. Culture is blind. But what is the cost?
Two men. A century apart.
One, an Afghan cameleer escaping the brutality of war-torn Afghanistan, seeking hope in the unforgiving heart of the White Australia outback. Amid heartache and isolation, he carries the burden of belonging—and survival.
The other, an Australian soldier caught in the post-9/11 war machine. As the world clamours for vengeance, he begins to see the cracks in the lies he’s been told—and the truth of the war he's fighting.
As cultures clash and centuries echo, Afghani asks: Can peace exist when history keeps repeating itself?
Bold, lyrical, and unflinchingly honest, Afghani is a dual-timeline novel that skewers xenophobia and questions the legacy of a war built on shifting sands.
