Omschrijving
The book recreates a past of Hindus and Muslims living together in Kashmir. The atmosphere of togetherness is rife. Almost perfect. The stories also return the reader to the terrible conditions of Hindu refugees as they began to live in the refugee camps in Jammu and other places of India.
Rattan Lal Shant's at once subtle and powerful portrayal of the tragedy of Kashmir comes alive in Javaid Iqbal Bhat's sensitive translation. —Ira Raja, Professor of English, University of Delhi
The cultural landscape that breathes through the vivid imagery elevates the story. One finds a sense of nostalgia for lost homeland woven with the longing for the nation. - Saba Mahmood Bashir, Assistant Professor, Department of English, Jamia Millia Islamia
