He experiences a difficult love-affair and then after 9-11, he has to come to terms with his feelings about the US and his home country and make some changes to his life. <BR/><BR/>That is a very lame summary. The story is told from his point of view as he is speaking to an American tourist (we don't really know if he is a tourist or not, actually) in Pakistan. That really makes it interesting.<BR/><BR/>I think it's a good read for us Americans who don't often get to consider 9-11 from another point of view. We sometimes have to look hard to find alternate viewpoints.<BR/><BR/>SO, that's what I think in a poorly-constructed nutshell.<BR/><BR/>Do we know each other in real life?<BR/><BR/>Susansusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930119917473280929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27471053.post-77217996265851280322008-01-10T16:19:00.000-06:002008-01-10T16:19:00.000-06:00Hi Susan,Why should we read it?
