Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition/First Printing. This copy of "Discontent and Its Civilizations" has been SIGNED by Mohsin Hamid on the title page! A writer who has earned a reputation as a "master critic of the modern global condition." In this collection of essays Hamid traces the fracture lines generated by a decade and a half of seismic change, from the "war on terror" to the struggles of individuals to maintain humanity in the rigid face of ideology or the indifferent face of globalization. While at Princeton University, Hamid took two Creative Writing courses - one with Joyce Carol Oates and the other with Toni Morrison. Hamid was born in Lahore, Pakistan, went with his family when he was three to live in California, then back to Pakistan, then to Princeton University, then Harvard Law, then as a management consultant in New York and London, and now back to Lahore, Pakistan where he currently resides. His most recent work, "Exit West" has been shortlisted for the 2017 MAN Booker Award. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 8620
