    About this ebook

    Samina Uddin pays homage to her late father in this debut memoir.

    It transports us to how Mukhtar Uddin navigated the Partition of India, the 

    birth of Pakistan, and the racial prejudice of London in the 1950s and 1960s.


     A story of family, sacrifice, identity and memory.
