The Horsemen
Joseph Kessel
New American Library
1967
Of all the travel writers Joseph Kessel, born in Argentina to a Lithuanian father and a Russian mother, is certainly the one who travelled the most under different national identities. An insatiable writer, he made numerous trips across different continents to bring back stories that he then published in many forms.
The Horsemen - whose action takes place in Afghanistan at a time when this country was synonymous with wide-open spaces and shrouded in mystery - is an inspiring epic novel and an ode to freedom.
