03.13: The Bargain from the Bazaar: A Family's Day of Reckoning in Lahore
2014-02-19 01:35:14| Powells Books Events Calendar
Lahore's Anarkali Bazaar is the largest open market in South Asia — where labyrinthine streets teem with shoppers, rickshaws, and cacophonous music. But Anarkali's exuberant hubbub cannot conceal the fact that Pakistan is a country at the edge of a precipice. Haroon Ullah's The Bargain from the Bazaar (PublicAffairs) is a window onto middle-class lives caught in the maelstrom of a nation falling to pieces — from a violently changing world on the outside and a growing terror from within.
