Review: The Reluctant Fundamentalist

The Reluctant Fundamentalist The Reluctant Fundamentalist by Mohsin Hamid
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

As an Indian who is acutely aware of the history and the animosity that often flares up between India and Pakistan, I found this book an interesting read. I have lived through the events of the last two decades that are key to the plot, and this story helped me understand how the other side felt. The tale gives one a few glimpses into the day to day lives, the hopes and the fears of ordinary Pakistanis, which are no different than that of Indians. I am glad I read this book.
