Book Overview
Kashmir is a distinct region yet to be explored fully. The authors ‘tell’ human stories against an awe-inspiring, natural backdrop. Their compelling and magical pictorial journey with the reader through the Valley – celebrating the ethereal beauty and the cultural diversity of this land as well as marking the shades of change and transition – has been painted with the lesser known colours, layers and textures which lie beyond the known dimensions of Kashmir. Breathtaking photographs in varying shades and angles supported by well-researched, relevant text in this unique travel book are the tools to communicate to the reader a classical Kashmir—with its inherent rich culture and exotic landscapes set against unfamiliar facts, fables and space and the intimate aspects of daily life and its treasured moments. The reader becomes a part of a thriving society waiting to match steps with the rest of the world despite huge challenges.

About the Author
Filmmaker Nilosree Biswas’ documentary Broken Memory Shining Dust was an Official Selection at the 65th Cannes International Film Festival; it is now a part of academic library collections including Harvard and Columbia Universities, the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London and the permanent archives of Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences (Oscar Library). Currently her time is divided between photo books and in developing screenplays. A keen traveller and food enthusiast, Nilosree’s interests are Central Asian studies, subjects related to women and cats, necessarily not in that order. Irfan Nabi believes images build stories. Irfan’s photographs have been exhibited at ‘Picturing Asia’ at the International Institute for Asian Studies at Leiden, The Netherlands in 2015 and ‘Food: Our Global Kitchen’ at the National Geographic Museum, Washington DC, 2014. They have been published and acclaimed by National Geographic’s and Guardian Travel’s Online portals. Irfan remains connected with film making, script writing and still imaging, having just completed a public service film on pedestrian rights in Mumbai. A consistent reader, Irfan loves painting and is a self-taught chef. As he puts it—‘I happened to study and practise medicine also.’
