| Description: |
From one of the worlds most famous political dynasties, a sensational new literary voice tells the heartbreaking and revelatory tale of the family that shaped Pakistan |
| Synopsis: |
In September 1996, fourteen-year-old Fatima Bhutto hid in a windowless dressing room, shielding her baby brother, while shots rang out in the dark outside the family home in Karachi. This was the night her father Murtaza was murdered. It was the latest in a long line of tragedies for one of the worlds best-known political dynasties. Songs of Blood and Sword tells the story of a family of feudal landlords who became powerbrokers. It is an epic tale of intrigue, the making of modern Pakistan, and ultimately, tragedy. A searing testament to a troubled land, Songs of Blood and Sword reveals a daughters love for her father and her search to uncover the truth of his life and death. |
