Whispers of the Desert

This is a sparkling collection of some forty-five poems by the fifteen year old daughter of Murtaza Bhutto, who was gunned down during the premiership of his sister, Benazir Bhutto. Though written two or three years before the assassination, they are largely premonitory and speak of a life of loneliness and separation.
