The Return of Faraz Ali

The Return of Faraz AliThe Return of Faraz Ali by Aamina Ahmad
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Such an interesting time and place. Enigmatic characters. This book starts out like a detective novel but quickly becomes a story of history, culture, and above all, family. It's about what happens when we choose to follow our conscience and the reasons why we don't. It's about loyalty and who deserves it. Faraz is not a hero, sometimes not even likable, but I was 100% invested in him and his family and Pakistan's history and culture.

In war, Wajid had learned, nothing mattered but getting out of it, away from it.  Ghazi had learned that everything was war.
