Reviews

"“This book contains a compendium of Abdullah’s letters, lectures, and press articles, which carefully document his laws-into-sausages struggle to achieve a free, independent Kashmir based on pluralism, a rejection of the religious split between Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs that ultimately truncated South Asia into endlessly combative, nationalistic, and regressive regimes. … This book is an intuitive primer in democracy for anyone who would take a practical, holistic view of the democratic enterprise.” (Jim Drummond, World Literature Today, Vol. 93 (3), 2019) “The book taken as a whole is an interesting read because it not only presents us the ideas of sheikh Abdullah in the form of his letters, speeches and press conferences but also give as a clear peep into Khan’s own understanding of the situation as it exists in Kashmir at present. … The Book reflects her frustration with the Violence, purposelessness, and senselessness, that the Present-day politics has started representing."" (Rekha Chowdhary, The Book Review, Vol. 63 (3), March, 2019)"
