Andrew Quilty - Tyrrany Up Close

When the Taliban arrived at the gates of Kabul in August 2021, Andrew Quilty had been living and working there for eight years. He was one of only a handful of Western journalists remaining. In this conversation, which was recorded at the 2023 festival, Andrew discusses his book August in Kabul, which explores the humanitarian cost of the 20-year war. The conversation is hosted by Antony Loewenstein.  The Stories to You podcast series is supported by Create NSW. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
