Afghanistan: history
of a land of culture
and anarchy

Friday 10 June

A lecture at the British Museum with Bijan Omrani, independent speaker.

and decay.

Bijan Omrani, author of Afghanistan: A Companion and Guide, unravels the past of this turbulent land at the heart of Asia, and traces its story from ancient times to the modern era.
