Paperback. Condition: New. Aging and homesick, Nur Ali is living in America, seeking asylum. Though exiled from his Swat, Pakistan, homeland and inaccurately labeled as a Taliban sympathizer by the US government, he's determined to keep his position as family patriarch. So Nur Ali leads and provides for his beloved family clan in Pakistan from half a world away. Using prepaid phone cards and a landline in the inner-city 7-Eleven where he works as night shift manager, Nur Ali manages food, gifts, marriages, births, and deaths, all the events that glue a family together. Culturally accurate, this work of fiction is a page-turning journey that will give you new insight into the lives of immigrants who come to America seeking a better life while still clinging to the culture and traditions of their homeland. Post 9-11 America is not the melting pot many thought it could be. This is the daily reality Nur Ali and his friends live. They are exiled from home and living in yet another hostile country. These immigrants find themselves homeless both at home and abroad. This suspenseful struggle of Nur Ali, his family in Pakistan, and his friends in America, will both entertain and inform you.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Boards (HB) in very good condition with slight bow to covers from storage. Dust jacket in very good condition with slight waviness to lower spine and 4 tiny holes. Sharing tales of misfortune is a common practice among women in many cultures. Among the Paxtun, an Islamic, Paxto-speaking group living in both Afghanistan and Pakistan, these stories of grief or sadness (gham) are a vital medium of exchange, through which relationships are formed and maintained. Indeed, as Benedicte Grima asserts in this engrossing study, performing these rituals of grief and suffering largely defines what it. means to be an honorable Paxtun woman.
