How keen everyone is to make this world their home forgetting its impermanence It's like trying to see and name constellations in a fireworks display.

All those who love know exactly the limit they're prepared to go to. They know exactly what is required.

~ Nadeem Aslam

Even the air of this country has a story to tell about warfare. It is possible here to lift a piece of bread from a plate and following it back to its origins, collect a dozen stories concerning war-how it affected the hand that pulled it out of the oven, the hand that kneaded the dough, how war impinged upon the field where wheat was grown.

On the journey towards the beloved, you live by dying at every step
