by Justine Hardy
On This Page
Description
Relying on her experience as a twenty-year-veteran correspondent of the Kashmir conflict and her twelve-year friendship with the Dar family, Justine Hardy weaves together a kaleidoscope of viewpoints--from reformed jihadists and Indian generals to Pandit refugees and members of the Dar family--as she recounts the story of Kashmir's troubled past and equally unstable present.Tags

Just to orientate you: Kashmir separates India and Pakistan. Both areas had been warring over this beautiful area for decades. Meanwhile, a separatist insurgent group within Kashmir also sought independence. By 1989 rising tensions finally gave way to major conflict. Justine Hardy wanted to tell the story of the innocent families living within the conflict. With their blessing, via In the Valley of Mist, she attempts to expose the corruption and controversy caught between three very different worlds. Everything, from manner of dress to religious convictions, are examined.
