When journalist Taran Khan arrives in Kabul, she uncovers a place that defies her expectations. Her wanderings in Kabul reveal a fragile city in a state of flux: stricken by near-constant war, but flickering with the promise of peace; governed by age-old codes but experimenting with new modes of living.

Taran Khan shares her experience of writing 'Shadow City: A Woman Walks Kabul', with broadcaster Achala Sharma in this 7th episode of Cineink Podcast, Kitaab Kaulum. Winner of the Stanford Dolman Travel Book of the Year Award 2021, Shadow City has been published by Vintage, Penguin Random House India.

In the weekly trivia on books, Pervaiz Alam lists some of the best known travelogues written in English, Hindi and Urdu.
