Robert Fisk, one of the world's leading foreign correspondents, returned to Afghanistan just before the first anniversary of September 11, where he wrote a scathing series of articles for London's Independent newspaper on the after-effects of the allied bombing offensive aimed at getting rid of the country's Taliban and Osama Bin Laden's al-Qa'ida leaders. 27 pages

2. THE ROAD STOPS AT NOWHERE

When South African author Denis Beckett took his family for a summer holiday trip from Johannesburg to the Cape, they didn't intend spending the ensuing weeks acquainting themselves with broiling desert roadsides, embattled third world hospitals or the intimate civic pathology of some of the least tourist-attractive towns on earth. A wonderful adventure story with a tale to tell about the universal human predicament. 80 pages
