Rezension zu „The Reluctant Fundamentalist “
PRAISE FOR "THE RELUCTANT FUNDAMENTALIST""Elegant and chilling . . . his tale [has] an "Arabian Nights"-style urgency: the end of the story may mean the death of the teller."--"The New York Times Book Review""Slender, smart, and subversive."--"Entertainment Weekly"
"Changez's voice is extraordinary. Cultivated, restrained, yet also barbed and passionate, it evokes the power of butler Stevens in Kazuo Ishiguro's "The Remains of the Day."--The Seattle Times"
"A searing and powerful account of a Pakistani in New York after 9/11."--Mira Nair, director of T"he Namesake"
Pressezitat
A profoundly contemporary story about civil wars, unstable countries and refugees pouring to the cities of the West... beautifully written, with the ghost of Camus hovering at the edge of the frame New Statesman
