📱 eBook en inglés DISCONTENT AND ITS CIVILIZATIONS

Discontent and its Civilizations is the essential first collection of non fiction from Mohsin Hamid.

Discontent and its Civilizations collects the best of Mohsin Hamids writing on subjects as diverse and wide-ranging as Pakistan; fatherhood; the death of Osama Bin Laden and the writing of The Reluctant Fundamentalist.

Unified by the authors humane, clear-headed and witty voice, the book makes a compelling case for recognizing our common humanity while relishing our diversity - both as readers and citizens; for resisting the artificial mono-identities of religion or nationality or race; and for always judging a country or nation by how it treats its minorities, as Each individual human being is, after all, a minority of one.

Mohsin Hamid writes regularly for The New York Times, the Guardian and the New York Review of Books, and is the author of The Reluctant Fundamentalist, Moth Smoke and How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia. Born and mostly raised in Lahore, he has since lived between Lahore, London and New York.
