mihrchand's review
3.0
An exemplary translation of a beautiful book. If only the storyline was more coherent, and easier to follow. I loved the descriptions of erstwhile Lucknow & Delhi that the muhajir community had left behind in India with their move to Karachi. Absolutely beautiful. As a student of History, I particularly appreciated the parallel drawn between Al-Andalus, Córdoba, Sevilla and Granada with the state of Lucknow and Delhi after Partition.
