Soname is an amazing woman and I am glad to have discovered her story and her music through reading 'Child Of Tibet'.

Oh, Urmila ! Will the World ever know of your inner sufferings and your divine sacrifice? This book is a very attempted answer by Kavita Kane.

Priya Hajela's debut novel not only authentically depicts the partition of India and Pakistan but also vividly captures the cultural legacy of Lahore, Amritsar, and Delhi through architecture, food, and fashion. The story explores the lives on either side of the border, providing a depiction of profound suffering. Also, the insightful commentary on women's clothing adds a nuanced layer, comparing the cultural nuances through details like the cut of the salwar. It's more like a filmy plot introducing a hero with a mysterious past and a pretty heroine, the narrative strategically weaves unresolved issues and foreshadowing, leaving readers'curiosity for the sequel. all, it's a good light read, perfect for a leisurely weekend or a journey with coffee, offeringa compelling blend of history, personal narratives, and cultural richness.

The book on Ruttie Jinnah, the woman who stood defiant, highlights one of the most under-studied and underappreciated prominent figures in modern South Asian history. Reconstructing the narrative of a life lost in time through meticulous research and attention to detail is a commendable feat in its own right, and we owe a debt of gratitude to Saad Khan for bringing to light the hidden history of Ruttie Jinnalh. What a beautiful tale comprising three unique love stories the love story of Mr. Jinnah and Mrs. Jinnah, Mrs. Jinnah's love for our motherland's freedom, and the love and admiration of contemporary personalities in India. Together, they laid the folation for female visibility in the political space. I ly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning about the inspiring life and legacy of Ruttie Jinnah.
