Über diesen Titel

First published in 1963, James A. Michener's gripping chronicle of the social and political landscape of Afghanistan is more relevant now than ever. Combining fact with riveting adventure and intrigue, Michener follows a military man tasked, in the years after World War II, with a dangerous assignment: finding and returning a young American woman living in Afghanistan to her distraught family after she suddenly and mysteriously disappears. A timeless tale of love and emotional drama set against the backdrop of one of the most important countries in the world today, Caravans captures the tension of the postwar period, the sweep of Afghanistan's remarkable history, and the inescapable allure of the past.

Kritikerstimmen

"Brilliant...an extraordinary novel.... The old nomadic trails across the mountains spring into existence." ( The New York Times)
"Romantic and adventurous.... [Michener] has a wonderful empathy for the wild and free and an understanding of the reasons behind the kind of cruelty that goes with it." ( Newsday)
"Michener has done for Afghanistan what...his first [book] did for the South Pacific." ( The New York Herald Tribune)

The novel, as well as the speaker and his interpretation and voice are great. I' ve enjoied every minute of it. It gave me the impression, that I know now something about Afghanistan. Which of course is nonsense. This audiobook is one of the best I listened to. Thanks to all of you, who produced it.

Great

This book put a spell on me with the mentioning of names of old countries and historical places. Reading this book for the first time after the Russians where defeated and now a second time after the second fall of Kabul to the Taliban, is an absolute tour we force.

Amazing
