These are stories from my homeland, mostly in a humorous vein. I also wanted to share with all, a different perspective of a distant land where a centuries old feudal system, goes hand in hand with modern times. A land where life is noble, chivalrous and full of contradictions. This author does not waste words. The characters are vibrant and alive, some of their escapades left me rolling with laughter.
Some incidents are poignantly tragic, making it a skillfully woven and balanced compilation.
The backdrop is a tumultous time in India's history but fortunately, this book is not a history lesson. At a swift pace we are transferred from camel plodding, horse chargeing days to the present and some familiar figures are dealt with rather irreverently. Excellent piece of work. Keep it up. You have opened new ways to see Pakistan.
