Days of Fear: A Firsthand Account of Captivity Under the New Taliban

By Daniele Mastrogiacomo

 A harrowing story of an Italian journalists capture by the Taliban and the frightening details of his detention. Written with concise and descriptive language without embellishment, the stark reality of his experience hits the reader hard. Mastrogiacomo speaks honestly about the variety of fear and terror he and the others experienced. He writes about the fight to resist utter hopelessness; struggling to hold on to the belief that even the smallest crumb of hope could keep him going.

Incredible story, told in stark language.  I could not put the book down!
