Ian Pounds-Cambodia Story Feb13

Wednesday, February 13th 8:00 pm

The Democracy Center
45 Mount Auburn Street
Harvard Square, Cambridge



In the tradition of Spalding Gray's Swimming to Cambodia, Ian Pounds
recounts
the at turns humorous and inspiring story of his solo journey to
Afghanistan as a
response to a splintered life, landing him as the only westerner in an
orphanage
in Kabul. After four years teaching over 300 boys and girls representative
of all
regions and races, Pounds gives unique insight to the people and the
country of
America's longest conflict. Ultimately this is the tale of how, in living
among children
of war a man discovers how truly a land, its people and a broken heart can
become
Undestroyed.

Admission Free
