Across The Wagah: An Indian's Sojourn in Pakistan
This book, looking into the lives of people of Pakistan brings back you to the time of Partition. The pain and despair at the vivisection of the motherland is far from over. There is nostalgia of the land that once was part of India, and has now become distant, inaccessible and negative feelings for the people who occupied it. The author describes its people, societies, ‘biradaries’, tribes and tribal codes of conduct, ethnic groups and languages, and racial mixtures, making it an anthropologist's delight.
