br. Il diario inedito di una guerra mai raccontata così. Un racconto in presa diretta, senza mediazioni, il diario di un uomo che ha vissuto per oltre un anno in uno dei peggiori teatri di guerra del pianeta. Responsabile degli approvvigionamenti per i contingenti schierati in Afghanistan, l'autore di questa toccante e vivida testimonianza descrive le difficoltà del suo lavoro, i viaggi quotidiani all'insegna del rischio di attentati, la vita dentro le strutture militari in compagnia di persone di tutto il mondo, gli incontri brevi ma al tempo stesso intensi con la popolazione locale. In un luogo dannatamente ostile e pericoloso, le precauzioni non sembrano mai sufficienti. Ogni spostamento è attentamente programmato e sorvegliato. Ma, purtroppo, non tutto va sempre per il verso giusto. Gli stranieri vengono presi di mira e sono spesso vittime di feroci assalti o attentati kamikaze. Tra paura e forti emozioni, in un mondo sconvolto da un conflitto che sembra non finire mai, Un anno in Afghanistan è una lettura imperdibile per chi voglia capire fino in fondo cos'è la guerra, raccogliendo elementi e riflessioni che TV e giornali non ci hanno mai proposto.
