Autumn
Leaves: Kashmiri Reminiscences
Kashmir
has a unique tradition of
recording history. This book,
in this tradition, presents
the intimate life of a
Kashmiri in the
post-independence era. Such a
personal story is a rarity in
India. Ram Nath Kak draws
compelling vignettes of
everyday life; a hard
childhood, life as a
government official, drama of
the war with Pakistan,
meetings with mystics, and so
on.
