The Blind Man's Garden by Nadeem Aslam
In the aftermath of 9/11, in a Pakistani town, two foster brothers cross into Afghanistan to offer medical aid but are trapped by militants and the U.S.-led war, setting off a chain of loss, captivity, and relentless searches that shake their family and community. As a devout patriarch struggles with guilt and failing sight and a young woman torn between duty and forbidden love fights to endure, the narrative moves from battlefields and prisons to a once-verdant home, exploring faith, grief, and the corrosive consequences of fanaticism and vengeance.
