Looking for the Afghan by Richard Loseby

Richard Loseby's first book, Blue is the Colour of Heaven, an astonishing account of his journey by foot through Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan, was a gripping of his trip and the war torn countries he visited. Unbelievably, in November 2002 Richard decided to take a break from the constraints of mortgage and family and return to Iran and Afghanistan in search of his friends Karim and Nebi - Nebi's last words to him were 'come back soon Massoud' - a journey few would even contemplate. He travelled light, without the trappings of modern travel, except for his old Pentax camera, a notepad and a good pair of boots. What had happened to his friends in the intervening years? They were fighting a war with a common enemy - were they still alive? Part travelogue, part personal quest, and part mystery, Richard once again reveals his brilliance as a writer, storyteller and photographer.
Richard Loseby was born in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, in 1963. He grew up in Australia before moving to New Zealand at the age of eight. In 1980 he ventured into advertising as a copywriter, working in London from 1985 to 1993 before returning to Auckland.
