We are pleased to announce the release of Surfing in Pakistan by Sana Nasim and Caleb Powell.
When Pakistani artist and polio survivor Sana Nasim reaches out to Caleb Powell, blogger for the Karachi-based Express Tribune, an extraordinary and transformative friendship begins. She questions her will to live and wants to improve her English, he wants to create a work of art.
In the tradition of Azar Nafisi’s Reading Lolita in Tehran, they read and discuss the opuses of Truman Capote, Harper Lee, W. Somerset Maugham, Toni Morrison, and Barbara Kingsolver, pushing Sana to write moving and powerful stories of life in Pakistan.
Surfing in Pakistan is available now in hardcover, trade paperback, and digital editions from most online booksellers and distributors.
