Rumours of Spring: A Girlhood in Kashmir by Farah Bashir

5.0
A definite 5-star read for anyone interested to know about Kashmir and its life in constant restrictions and military presence. Farah Bashir shows how everyday life is affected for every Kashmiri through the beautiful and simple narration of her adolescent life. Like how opening a window at home during the curfew might cost a life, like making a small sound at home on a curfew night can invite army raids even in the middle of the night.
