A note from Pen, Nowzad founder. 

This year has finally brought the closure I needed on the events surrounding August 2021 and the evacuation of Kabul. Just as I had almost given up hope of finding a publisher, the marvellous team at Claret Press gave me the opportunity to publish ‘Operation Ark’ in July of this year, both as a paperback and an audiobook.

They wanted to get him somewhere safe🙏 What they expected was a puppy. Instead, they found a beautiful dog around one year old, absolutely petrified by whatever he had been through. He would simply freeze in fear. They fed him, sat with him, and reassured him overnight in their apartment. With his striking, different coloured eyes, including one crystal bl
