Haunting of Hajji Hotak and Other Stories

Jamil Jan Kochai breathes life into his contemporary Afghan characters as he explores heritage, exploring heritage and memory from the homeland to the diaspora in the United States, in the spiritual and physical lands these unforgettable characters inhabit. The Haunting of Hajji Hotak and Other Stories is a moving exploration and narrative of heritage, the ghosts of war, and home - and one that speaks to the immediate political landscape we reckon with today.
