Adventures in Islam, music and writing. Newer posts →. November 18, 2010. It’s Thursday afternoon which means Sufi time (it was two weeks ago that I went to see the qawwali at the Nizamuddin dargah).

Book Review: The Colonel Who Would Not Repent – The Bangladesh War and its Unquiet Legacy, by Salil Tripathi. 8217; It would be an understatement to say that I was shell-shocked.

I found some answers, but until I read Salil Tripathi’s. Is not just about Mujib&#...
