    This success came with the lives of her own family member and young part workers.
    This is a great book to understand the complex situations in the country which was a
    blend of autocracy, democracy and adverse effects of martial law in country. She gave her life
    events of bravery and eloquent political career in fictional form. It’s her autobiography, that’s
    why it’s not surprising to have exaggeration of things to create feeling of sympathy for her
    among readers. Benazir mentioned in her book of tyranny of the government who assassinated
    his father Mr. Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. It was written that she and her mother were even deprived of
    the basic necessities of life like good She picturized Bhutto family as the victim of cruelty and
    injustice of the unwanted dictators. When she was jailed it was a great time of misery for her,
    because she lead a life like princess in her young age. But it was not new at that time. It was
    assumed to be customary for the military officials to overthrow democratic government after a
    decade.

    courageous deeds of Bhutto family which was not only famous in Pakistan but also worldwide.

    and Oxford gave her tremendous confidence and sense to hold the reins of a country. Being the
    first women prime minister in Pakistan, the fame she got was incomparable.

    minister on 2nd December, 1988. She wished for democracy, economic development of country,
    strong ties with Muslim world and good terms with other countries of the world especially
    neighboring countries. Benazir Bhutto always imagined about a love marriage as his father and
    mother did. But on insistence of her family she decided to get marry Asif Ali Zardari.

    that his sudden death in a plane crash is “ God’s wrath”. The incident after which Benazir family
    again got hold on government. Zia’s death was a new phase for ppp to grow after many years
    which proved as beneficial for the party. At the end of the book, Benazir Bhutto described

    history of Pakistan. And the comeback of Pakistan People’s Party after many years paved a new
    way of success due to struggles of Benazir Bhutto.
