From the review, I see an interesting book that highlights the culture, politics and life in Kashmir. I'm interested in the book to learn more about Kashmir.

Despite all the hardships the Kashmirs have gone through, they have retained their innocence. This was evident when I visited Kashmir with my family. This book seems to give a detailed insight into the valley and its people.

Thank you for the great review.

"Secrets of the Kashmir Valley" by Farhana Qazi is a poignant exploration of the resilience and spirit of women in the midst of the Kashmir conflict. It's a deeply moving narrative that transcends politics, focusing instead on the human stories of survival and hope. The book is a testament to the author's courage and empathy, offering readers a rare glimpse into the lives of these women. It's a compelling read that leaves a lasting impression.

Great review! This obviously isn’t a requirement, but I can appreciate the time that was taken here to emphasize how well written the book was rather than going into too many details about the actual contents. This leaves potential readers to discover the assumed top-tier quality of the book for themselves.

In "Secrets of the Kashmir Valley," Farhana Qazi masterfully combines comprehensive research with heartfelt storytelling. This approach makes it easy for readers to connect with the people of Kashmir. By reading this book, you'll not only learn about the challenges they face but also about their remarkable strength and resilience. I couldn't find anything to dislike about this book, and I would give it a perfect five out of five stars for its exceptional editing and grammatical precision.

It's always great to find a book with this sort of balance. This especially if it’s on a particularly “meaty” topic, as I would think Kashmir would be.

This book introduces the reader to the wonders and beauty of Kashmir amid the conflict that continues to take place in the region. The author is passionate about Kashmir, starting from when she was little with her mother’s stories. One for those interested in learning about the conflict.

Kashmir sounds like a place which is plagued more by external aggression than internal strife. An analogy comes to mind, of a helpless person caught between two bullies fighting over who gets the exclusive rights to bully the victim!
A sad state of affairs, which can only be understood better by paying more attention to the underlying intrinsic national emotional psyche, rather than focus on the extrovert expressions of the activists frustrations.
There is no better way to gain insight into this than listening to women telling it, because they are the actual first line victims in any conflict. It becomes even Much better,if the telling of such a story is impartial as you have noted.
A good review. And the book promises to offer a more sensitive insight into the Kashmir situation and a good read.

"Kashmir" name that resonates with both nature's beauty and war. The people of Kashmir live their lives between fear and hope. The views are breathtaking and you can be counting on your breath in the event of war. But the real victory lies in the spirit of its people who lived their lives despite difficulties and will continue to live on. Congratulations on BOTD!

[Ladi S]

I like the way the book helps you understand the Kashmir people in a simple language. Also I commend it for the adequate research put into publishing it.

[Kshitija Sonawane]

Kashmir is a very complex issue indeed. I have been to Kashmir, seen the poverty, seen the scams, seen the soldiers who are always around. I went there before Article 370 was abrogated. I believe the situation has become better. I hope Kashmir progresses. Congratulations on the BOTD, and best wishes for future projects.
