This book introduces Kashmir as an idea and a place to general readers. Written in digestible language, it untangles a very complicated topic to help readers understand not just Kashmir's past, present, and future, but also the sources of their misconceptions about it. It thus explains how Kashmir assumed a special place in our imaginations.
