Listening to Pakistan: A Woman's Voice in a Veiled Land

Pakistan stands front and center in current geopolitical intrigue and looms as a powder keg in U.S. relations in Asia and the Middle East, but few travelers go to see for themselves what counterbalances there may be to media reports. In "Listening to Pakistan: A Woman's Voice in a Veiled Land," Denise B. Dailey gives us in lyrical prose a fair, sensitive, compassionate portrayal of the land and people who have prevailed against geological, military, religious and political upheavals. Would that she were our Ambassador!
