review 1: Shocking in its truth! The book is a detail work on the Kashmir conflict.It Introduces the parties of the conflict and the Kashmiris of Indian-side of Kashmir. It is a memoir and easily read. I didn't like the writing style of the author, it seemed foggy at times. Notwithstanding, the book is a nice introductory book on the conflict and more details, like the caste, sects could also add more value to the book. The authors own views are usually reserved and apolitical, this being a plus and minus.
review 2: A powerful and important narrative on the 'Kashmir Situation'. Basharat Peer, born and brought up in Kashmir, before he left the bloodied place for education and career, returns to his birthplace, traces his roots and writes a hard-hitting, poignant account o... moref what went on and has been going on in Kashmir since the early 90's. A must-read for every Indian! I salute you Peer Sir for this gem of a book. less
