William Dalrymple, travel writer, historian and sharp observer of South Asia, has written an excellent piece on Benazir Bhutto for the Guardian: Pakistan's flawed and feudal princess -- take a look at the very interesting comments as well.
The link is here http://observer.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,,2233261,00.html and the debate in the comments that follow are every bit as interesting!
Happy New Year Nancy - and I hope the bandicoot stays away!
Thanks for telling me about the link, and for correcting it -- and for pointing out the comments. I read the article before there were any comments. I'm glad to see that, in spite of the usual crazies, most people responded very positively to the article.
My husband Swami and I are readers of your blog. It has been one of our long time wishes to meet you. Do you think it will be possible for you? Please email me at lakshmi.ramachandran at gmail.com.
