Songs of Blood and SwordA Daughter’s Memoir
Fatima Bhutto's powerful new memoir, Songs of Blood and Sword, tells the story of a family of rich feudal landlords—the proud descendants of a warrior caste—who became power brokers in the newly created state of Pakistan. It is an epic tale full of the romance and legend of feudal life, the glamour and license of the international political elite and ultimately, the tragedy of four generations of a family defined by a political idealism that would destroy them.
