| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The pleasure derived from reading your own work through the work of scholars you admire greatly is unique. I read Gargi Bhattacharya, Randy Persaud and Lucian Ashworth’s review of Imagining Afghanistan with much anticipation and also a little frisson of anxiety – what if they hated it? These are academics whose scholarship and mentorship has shaped my thinking, whose opinion matters to me; not some strangers pontificating about the limits and merits of a text from a distant ivory tower. My first emotion was a sigh of relief but as I sat with their respective pieces, unsurprisingly, I learned from them. Below I briefly delineate how their reflections have informed my thinking around the next big project I am working on. |
