Description: Author Aatish Taseer was the result of a week of passion between a young Indian journalist and one of then Pakistan Prime Minister Bhutto's closest supporters. Aatish grew up in India, but always wanted to understand his father, his father's religion and his father's culture. “Stranger to History� begins in Istanbul, then travels to Mecca, Iran and finally to his father's home in Pakistan on the night Benazir Bhutto, the daughter of the man his father had so long admired, was assassinated.
