Author
Yasser Latif Hamdani The author of this book is a Pakistani born during the Zia's years and came of age in the dysfunctional democracy in the 1990s. Having gone to college in the US, Yasser returned to Pakistan in 2002 to find a country ruled by the military and in the crossfire of the deadly war on terror. The articles in this book were written in an attempt to make sense of the identity quagmire that Pakistan is, as a nation and as a people.
