The Leonard Lopate Show: In the Valley of Mist

In the Valley of Mist

Justine Hardy, a writer, filmmaker, and aid worker who has lived and worked in Kashmir for 20 years, describes the region’s unique culture that's been shattered by the impact of insurgency, repression, and Islamic extremism. Her book In the Valley of Mist is a portrait of the Dar family, a welcoming group of houseboat owners and carpet sellers, who have inhabited the Kashmir Valley for generations.
