Former NPR correspondent Sarah Chayes lives and works in Kandahar, Afghanistan, where she’s founded a soapmaking company, Arghand, to help rebuild the war-torn country. She tells us the latest on the resurgence of the Taliban there.
Sarah Chayes' article in the Dec. 2007 issue of the Atlantic Monthly magazine is "Scents and Sensibility."

She is amazing, as she has been for some time. I have worked on a promising idea in Pakistan that should also apply to Afghanistan. How can I contact her via email?
