“An important book” – Kahani: Short Stories by Pakistani Women – edited by Aamer Hussein

"This collection of short stories has been compiled exclusively from work by female Pakistani authors. While the stories seem like a cry for the liberation of Pakistani women from the social constraints of their world, they are also in many ways stories without gender because the underlying themes are universal. Death, exile and memory: all of these are explored through the experiences of female narrators" - Lucille Turner reviews Kahani: Short Stories by Pakistani Women - edited by Aamer Hussein
