| 520 | |a An unarmed prisoner - known to gaolers and inmates alike as 'Z' - languishes in a tiny cell for an unspecified crime. His days are measured out in lashes, as he is repeatedly ordered to confess his crime, or face the highest penalty.... 'Z's mistake is to have spoken out against the prevailing military government in Pakistan, and his eloquent poetry is the best defence for the prosecution. Gradually, however, 'Z' assumes the status of a hero in a drama in which the roles are subtly reversed: the accused becomes the accuser, the cruel and oppressive regime, the criminal. This powerful political novel is a searing indictment of human rights violations, written by a journalist with first-hand experience of the atrocities it describes. | ||
