      abstract = {In Opium Nation, Nawa deftly illuminates the changes that  have overtaken Afghanistan after decades of unbroken war.  Sharing remarkable stories of poppy farmers, corrupt  officials, expats, drug lords, and addicts, including her  haunting encounter with a twelve-year-old child bride who  was bartered to pay off her father's opium debts, Nawa  offers a revealing and provocative narrative of a  homecoming more difficult than she ever imagined as she  courageously explores her own Afghan American identity and  unveils a startling portrait of a land in turmoil."--P.
