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.

It is a nice collection of poems. The subjects are longing (for a father), love and politics. The language is simple and the message is solid.
Fatima Arif

As Fatima says in the note, these poems really were her pre motions.
