November's Book Sparks Controversy

We'll review The Bookseller of Kabul by Asne Seierstad on November 29th at 6:30, the usual place. Upon looking I see there has been some controversy as the man Seirstad stayed with in the book has sought legal action against the author. This interview with the author is interesting, as well as this article and website from Shah Muhammad Rais, the offended party.
Interesting stuff.
