SUMMARY:[SOLD OUT] An Evening With Journalist and Author Karen Bartlett
DESCRIPTION:We are so excited to be hosting an evening with bestselling journalist Karen Bartlett\, who will talk about her book The Escape from Kabul: A True Story of Sisterhood and Defiance. There will also be a Q&A\, and the opportunity to get yourself a copy of the book.  \nTickets are FREE – book your spot here. \nAbout ‘The Escape from Kabul’: \nCombining moment-by-moment drama with an emotional story of friendship and bravery\, The Escape from Kabul is also a searing insight into the captive fate of women in Afghanistan. \nIn the twenty years since 2001\, Afghan women had obtained legal degrees\, became judges and set out to transform their country – tackling corruption\, and reducing horrifying levels of violence against women and children. These educated women of power were clear targets for the Taliban. But their friends – and sister judges – from the UK\, Poland\, USA and ANZ were not prepared to abandon them\, using WhatsApp and sheer bloody-minded persistence\, they found escape routes and new homes for family after family. \nThis is a heart-stopping story of rescue; but also a moving account of ambition\, public service and the difficulties of having to build a new life abroad. Veteran\, bestselling journalist Karen Bartlett’s compelling account also celebrates the capabilities and global power of united\, working women and of the bond of a career spent in service to justice. Individuals who are often the last and only check to unbridled power\, influence and violence.
