A Bosnian humanitarian entangled with an Afghani doctor in a clash between Taliban-linked rebel groups and Government – how likely that can be? With stories drawn out from the drawers of humanitarian response, and non-response, in Bosnia, Sri Lanka, Burma, Afghanistan and Pakistan, „Another Sky” hooks them all up into a single truth-based fiction book. Read on… Wounded, kidnapped by the Afghani rebels, and then imprisoned at infamous interrogation cell of Pakistani Intelligence Service, Anika stubbornly follows her own vision of humanitarian work, where the ultimate aim is to assist those who need the assistance the most. And the aim, in her vision, justifies all the means. Doctor Zia Rashidi, an official of Afghan Ministry of Health, is the first on move when the conflict escalates to help the displaced population, despite the risk for his own life and safety. He has no means of knowing that the encounter with the stubborn Bosnian will be fateful. Mirza, an ex-humanitarian turned a rebel leader, filled with the hatred and anguish after the loss of beloved wife and their child. Rencounter with the old friends of past sets him back on the path of humanitarianism, love and friendship – long thought gone alongside with his family. Caught in the whirlpool of the complex military-rebel conflict in Afghanistan, Anika, Dr Rashidi and Mirza must find the way of confronting their own feelings and prejudices towards the Government, rebel formations and humanitarian aid delivery to those affected by it. From the heat of Kabul asphalt, across the desert dunes of Shams to the humming bazaars of Peshawar – Mirza, Zia and Anika will experience the hell brought on by the grief, hatred and desperation, yet never abandoning the spirit of defiance carrying them towards the embouchure of the unstoppable river of love and friendship.
