Synopsis

When he was eight years old, an Afghan stranger visited his dreams and placed a blue flower beneath his pillow.
Years later, the mystery of that dream became entwined with the sudden death of his father.

Blue is the Colour of Heaven is the true story of a journey that began in childhood grief and ended in the mountains of Afghanistan. Travelling alone through revolutionary Iran — weeks after Khomeini’s fatwa against Salman Rushdie had closed the borders — and onward into a country fracturing under war, Richard Loseby crossed deserts and front lines alongside the Mujahedeen before walking 600 miles across Afghanistan.

What he found there would stay with him forever.
