I have always been a reader of travel literature. Rory Stewart’s “The Places in Between” is a modern classic of the genre. It thoroughly deserves to be widely read. The essence of Stewart’s book is a journey he took entirely on foot from Herat to Kabul shortly after the fall of the Taliban. Arguably, this was a foolhardy mission and it certainly had its moments. Nonetheless, Stewart’s book is a wonderful and enchanting description of chance encounters, breathtaking scenery and some scary mishaps. Stewart takes the journey with the companionship of a large locally acquired dog. Although this may seem normal in a western country, dogs are considered dirty in Afghanistan and it definitely raised some issues for him along the way. The dog, however, proves to be a good foil and companion for Stewart. Finally, if there is one conclusion to be drawn from the book, it’s that the politics of Afghanistan are intractable. The nation is riven by religious, racial and linguistic barriers. There seems to be no chance that these will be resolved in the medium term. This is a shame. The nation is unfortunately blighted as a consequence.
