Yaadgah: Memories of Srinagar is a collection of essays dedicated to the old city of Srinagar. Against a backdrop of active violence and conflict, editor Arshi Javaid aims to capture the city’s transitional urban geography and demography, the gendered urban landscape, and its multicultural neighbourhoods. Thematically divided into four sections—Those Who Never Left, Seeking Home, Yaarbal (Meeting Point) and Shelters of Solace— this anthology seeks to establish an archive of collective memory, personal narratives, and stories of nostalgia, loss, and grief within the old city. Interspersed with the text is the astounding visual imagery of the city, which aims to capture its beauty, resilience, and its histories at every corner.
