"In my lap, hopping atop my thighs as the truck lurches, as my body shivers, sits a sturdy canvas Domke bag filled with Nikons and Kodachrome film, which I'm hoping to use to photograph the pullout of the Soviet troops from Afghanistan.

It is a coming-of-age story about how one woman fought her way on to battlefields, and the danger, pain, truths and love she discovered there.Hide
