Why read it?
1 author picked Curfewed Night as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
An elegant first-person tale of loss and change in the Kashmir Valley. I compare this book to the feeling one gets when mist descends on a grey, foggy day, and old long-forgotten memories recur with a vengeance. Peer’s work is remarkable for his pristine and exact memory of events, starting in the troubled 1990s, and ending in 2005 with the forlorn hope of peace in Kashmir.
From Andrew's list on non-fiction journalism and history in India.
