Nandita Haksar's magnum opus traces the tortured history of Kashmiri nationalism through the lives of two men : Sampat Prakash, a Kashmiri Pandit and Communist trade union leader who became active in politics during the Cold War years, and Mohammad Afzal Guru, a Kashmiri Muslim who became active in the early days of the Kashmir insurgency. The stories of many other individuals and groups are woven into this twin account which tries to examine how Kashmiri nationalists are caught in the web of international intrigue, as they negotiate the rivalries between the superpowers and also the competing nationalisms of India and Pakistan which invariably translate into Hindu-Muslim antagonism.
