...subtlety of this project is characteristic of a larger tendency in Van Valkenburgh’s work, often extraordinary in its light touch.

Run-of-the-mill politicians in Pakistan would never dream of taking the stances and actions taken by Musharraf, like his approach to the issues of Kashmir, the Taliban and religious extremism.
