Summary: A dazzling travel book about one of the least known places on earth. When Kathleen Jamie set out to the far flung removes of the Karakoram mountain regions of Northern Pakistan, she was told it was a dangerous place. Travelling on foot, in jeeps, on rafts, she met Sufi mystics, Irish missionaries, young men caught between East and West, women in purdah with whom she lived and became friends. She found a country in a tumult of change where tourism and fundamentalism take their toll in stress and human lives. With passionate and poetic intensity Kathleen Jamie explores the frontiers - those real and imaginary borderlines - of one of the most awesome landscapes in the world.
