"Written as a crossover between history and anthropology, Remnants of a seperation tells stories from both sides of the border and is the product of years of painstaking and passionate research. It pieces together an alternative history of the Partition - the first and only one told through material memory that makes the event tangible even seven decades later, lest we forget."--Taken from front jacket flap.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 367-380).
