A fascinating journey through Afghanistan, Pakistan, Central Asia and Iraq to seek out the mysterious origin of war rugs. For the first time, the context that has made possible one of the most perturbing visual novelties of the late twentieth century is reconstructed. This book analyses the multiple relations involved, ranging from the boldest contemporary art to Al-Qaeda propaganda posters.
