Mishal Husain - Broken Threads

About

Journalist and broadcaster Mishal Husain talks about her remarkable family memoir which uncovers the stories of her grandparents against a background of empire, political upheaval and the 1947 partition of India and Pakistan.  In conversation with Maria Sturdy-Morton, Mishal explains how a small fragment of sari prompted her to research family memories and diaries – telling of frantic departures, lost homes and lucky escapes.  Interweaving national and personal history, Broken Threads is a powerful family chronicle of lives shaped by war and the creation of new nation states.
