Such a poignant and sincere conversation . Have heard similar stories from my wife who also grew up in Srinagar. Farah, given your love for books you might even have visited her shop in Srinagar (Hind Book Shop)!
Conversation
Thank you for listening to it. Used to frequent almost all the (small and big) book shops across the city.
