Literary Fiction · ranked #64 in category
Changez, a Pakistani man who built a successful career in New York but left after 9/11, tells his story to an American stranger in a Lahore café. Hamid's short, charged novel is both a thriller and an examination of what America asks of those who arrive hoping to belong — and what that demand costs.
