Fatima Bhutto, journalist, political commentator and fearless niece of Benazir, is one of the most outspoken critics of Pakistan’s current regime. Her new book examines the interweaving of the Bhutto dynasty, politics and violence in Pakistan over the past 30 years, and discusses the building of a more just, empowered and democratic future for the country. Songs of Blood and Sword is a book about a family and a nation riven by murder, corruption conspiracy and division by one who has lived in the heart of it.
Fatima will be speaking with author and award winning journalist, Janine di Giovanni.
