As his sixth wife, I am holding him accountable. To the five other ex-wives of Mustafa Khar, who have silently suffered pain and dishonour while he walked away with impunity. I want the people of my country to know the truth behind the rhetoric, so that they might learn to look beyond the facade.
#MY FEUDAL LORD IN URDU ARCHIVE#
Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2012 Dedication I dedicate this book: To the people of Pakistan, who have repeatedly trusted and supported their leaders - leaders who have, in return, used the hungry, oppressed, miserable multitudes to further their personal interests. There is a deep-rooted deficiency in the feudalvalue system it must be diagnosed before it is treated.
But I had to cast aside my personal considerations in favour of the greater good. When I decided to write this book, I was aware of the perils of exposing the details of my private life to a male-dominated Muslim society. But the fantasy is far from reality, and my country of Pakistan must face up to reality if it is ever to grow and prosper. He is seen as a passionate ladies' man and something of a rough diamond, the archetypal male chauvinist who forces a woman to love him despite his treatment of her. Images of him parrying thrusts with the fiercest of swordsmen and riding off into the sunset on his black steed set the pubescent heart aflutter. Author's Note There is a fantasy of a feudal lord as as exotic, tall, dark and handsome man, with flashing eyes and traces of quick-tempered gypsy blood.
