  • 11 - Episode 10 Tryst With Koki Book Review (Audio English)

    Book review of Tryst With Koki by Dr Subhadra Anand. This beautiful book that tells the story of a Sindhi family that is uprooted from its ancestorial land of Sindh. The Partition of India remains one of the tragic legacies of British imperialism. The cost of independence of India included immeasurable human suffering, loss of homeland, existential threat to the language, life and culture of Sindhi people, particularly Hindu Sindhis who were in minority in Sindh before the Partition. The book tells the story of a resilient community that survived the chaotic migration from Sindh which became part of newly created Pakistan in 1947.
