intothesun-web“A ferociously intelligent and intensely gripping portrait of the expatriate community in Kabul—the idealists, mercenaries, aid workers and journalists.  Brilliant”.  Those are the words of just one of the many reviewers of “Into the Sun” by Deni Ellis Bechard,  In America, we really don’t understand what that world is – but “Into the Sun” shines a light.  While it IS fiction –  Deni spent nearly eight months living in Kabul and has traveled all over the world as a journalist.  He talks about the perception of war brought to American audiences through media and social media.  denibechard.com

Deni Ellis Béchard has since lived throughout North America and spent years abroad, in more than sixty countries . He has reported from India, Colombia, the Congo, Iraq, and Afghanistan.
