Undaunted
Summary
Bhavana Arora has three best-selling books to her credit: The Deliberate Sinner, Mistress of Honour and Love Bi the Way. Before her career as an author, she headed a business school for a few years. The latent scribe in her could no longer be ignored, and she now pursues her passion full-time. A contemporary author, her books and genres are versatile. The strength of her writing is in her robust research that flows through as realistic narratives. Undaunted tells the story of Lt. Ummer Faiyaz, a young Kashmiri who chose to join the Indian Army despite the challenges it posed to him and his family. He was a man of noble intent, a man who was unafraid of taking risks, a man who sought to live not only for himself and his family, but also for his community, region, and motherland. This inspired several fellow Kashmiris trapped in the vicious cycle of violence to seek a new path. His gruesome death at the young age of 23, while he was on a holiday to attend a wedding in the family, was a veritable tragedy. Bhavana Arora tells his inspiring and moving story with utmost sensitivity and sincerity, while also presenting the listener with a detailed account of the situation in Kashmir at the time. Written with two years of painstaking research, including six months of travel to the Kashmir Valley, the IMA, the NDA, MHOW, Devlali, and Akhnoor by the author, this audiobook presents some hard facts about Kashmir, its existing state, the psychology of kids, families, soldiers, and their perspective towards militancy and militants.
