Great to see this review of SHATTERED LANDS by @SamDalrymple123 in @BookReviewsAsia "brings not only cinematic urgency to this oft-told narrative, but also sets it in a much wider historical context...as deeply-felt as it is deeply-researched"

Fascinating discussion about SHATTERED LANDS with @SamDalrymple123 - in conversation with Dr Miranda Melcher on @NewBooksNetwork ⬇️ newbooksnetwork.com/shattered-land…
"Shattered Lands speaks powerfully to our present moment. The prose is vivid, the storytelling cinematic, and Dalrymple draws together forgotten archives from Aden to Assam. Above all, there is a refusal to mythologise, and instead a clear-eyed history..."
