Pakistan stands front and center in current geopolitical intrigue and looms as a powder keg in U.S. relations in Asia and the Middle East, but few travelers go to see for themselves what counterbalances there may be to media reports. In "Listening to Pakistan: A Woman's Voice in a Veiled Land," Denise B. Dailey gives us in lyrical prose a fair, sensitive, compassionate portrayal of the land and people who have prevailed against geological, military, religious and political upheavals. Would that she were our Ambassador!

Denise B. Dailey grew up in Brazil, the daughter of a French father and a Chilean-French mother. She moved to Montreal when she was thirteen, received a B.S. degree from McGill University, then moved to New York City where she enjoyed teaching Science, Music and English in private and public schools. With her husband and three children, she has traveled on the seven continents and kept extensive journals on each of her trips. Many of these inform her published short stories and fables. Denise received her MFA in Writing from Columbia University. She has finished a memoir of her life in Brazil during the Second World War,"Leaving Guanabara," and helped create the first and second editions of The Catskill Literary Journals called, respectively, "Who Knew?" and "The Walton Writers' Works." She now works on the biography of the Czechoslovakian painter, Jan Emmerich "Riko"Mikeska.
