"La scrittrice Paola Prandini, in questo racconto di attualità, porta alla luce il dramma degli Afghani e ci fa rivivere il loro esodo biblico dall'aeroporto di Kabul, tramite la storia della giovane Aisha che, in attesa di salire su uno dei voli di evacuazione dall'Afghanistan, assiste alle proteste e alle lotte popolari contro i marines americani. Nell'agosto del 2021, gli USA abbandonano il Paese, dopo aver perso in Afghanistan circa 2.400 militari in oltre 20 anni di operazioni contro i Talebani. (In her short story Paola Prandini sheds light on the dramatic exodus of thousands of Afghans forced to leave their country. The airport in Kabul is the setting chosen to depict people in great despair who gather and wait to board one of the aircrafts that will fly them away from Afghanistan. In this place anger boils over so much so that people stage protests and try to enter an off-limit area supervised by US soldiers and marines in charge of restoring law and order. In August 2021 the US troops leave the country. In their effort to assure more stability in region, the US pay a high price in terms of human lives lost and resources seemingly wasted for nothing. Around 2,400 soldiers die on the battlefield during twenty years spent fighting the Taliban regime.)" con la prefazione di Hafez Haidar
