PANJAB: North America Book Club

   Posted by: aman    in Punjab

Dear friends,

a few days back, I was very happy to meet a reading group in North America to discuss PANJAB: Journeys Through Fault Lines.

The group of Panjab scholars – majorly from Yale University and others – is engaging with the text and had many questions to ask. Our discussion lasted about 100 minutes.

Thank you Harjant Gill for the invitation, Mauricio Najarro for the photograph, Sasha Sabarwal for the meeting invite, Dipin Kaur for the heads up, Prof Inderjit Grewal for the session.

I enjoyed myself. The overwhelming sentiment was ‘the book is an important contribution to Panjab studies’.
