Pardise Lost is a valuable contribution to understanding Kashmir, its complex past and its fractured and tortured present. Siddhartha Guha Ray has deftly woven Kashmir’s myriad threads together in a detailed and accessible book.

Dubiously known as “ Paradise on Earth” Siddhatha Guha Ray’s account presents the long history of disturbing details of deadly political turmoil in Jammu and Kashmir, the north region of Indian sub-continent. Ray meticulously describes the ever-tightening vice of ruthless competitive domination by government and vigilante agents of India and Pakistan that have made the region a veritable war zone from 1947 till now, with no advancing solution in sight.
