Writing in ... Afghanistan

       In Asharq Al Awsat Firouzeh Ramazan Zadeh reports that the Triumph of Afghan writers in exile boosts literary scene at home.
       It would be nice to hear more about the current domestic scene, but at least it's interesting to learn that, for example:

Nahofteh, who authored Imaginary Roles, said Afghan publishers have also learnt from publishers in Iran and Pakistan, adding: "Professional editing found its way into Afghanistan following the migration of Afghans to Iran. Today, the best editors are those who have returned from Iran."

       (Now that's a point/idea I'd love to see explored in greater depth ... you don't often hear about Iran as a training ground for ...editors.)
