Attar of Roses<br />
<strong>and</strong> Other Stories of Pakistan<br />
Tahira Naqvi<br />
“[A] gemlike collection of short stories.”<br />
—FAWZIA AFZAL-KHAN,<br />
WORLD LITERATURE TODAY<br />
“I ... recommend Tahira Naqvi’s Attar of Roses to anyone who is interested<br />
in the portrayal of middle class family life in Pakistan. This collection<br />
of short stories, devoid of stylistic pretension, is refreshing <strong>and</strong> honest<br />
in its depiction.... Naqvi’s nuanced expression is a pleasure to read.”<br />
—BAPSY SIDHWA, JOURNAL OF ASIAN STUDIES<br />
Naqvi weaves together imagery <strong>and</strong> tone in a way that enables the<br />
reader to feel an affinity for a culture that may, at first glance,<br />
seem distant <strong>and</strong> impenetrable. Romantic, humorous, acerbic, <strong>and</strong><br />
vibrant, her stories both inform <strong>and</strong> entertain.<br />
