“With its stunning archive images and evocative folk poetry, I cried on the mountain top presents a compelling portrait of the remarkable culture of Afghanistan. Men, women and children appear in ordinary and extraordinary settings-magnificent rural landscapes, war-torn streets, and intimate domestic interiors. Complemented by some beautiful especially commissioned calligraphy, this volume offers rare insights into the soul of Afghanistan”—cover page.
