About the Book

Rahul Pandita was fourteen years old when he was forced to leave his home in Srinagar along with his family. They were Kashmiri Pandits-the Hindu minority within a Muslim-majority Kashmir, which was by 1990 becoming increasingly agitated with the cries of Azaadi from India. Our Moon Has Blood Clots is the story of the Kashmir, in which hundreds of thousands of Kashmiri Pandits were tortured, killed and forced to leave their homes by Islamist militants and made to spend the rest of their lives in exile in their own country. Rahul Pandita has written a deeply personal, powerful and unforgettable story of history, home and loss. About the Author Rahul Pandita is a journalist and an author based in Delhi.
