Discontent and Its Civilizations: Dispatches from Lahore, New York, and London by Mohsin Hamid

4.0

Solid collection--many of the essays hold up even though this collection is about 5 years old. Set up in 3 sections--life, art, and politics. They're all very short essays, and the politics section talks a lot about Muslim identity and Pakistan too. I do hope he publishes another essay collection--I'd pick it up on a timely basis and not wait this long! His prose is really enjoyable to read regardless of if he's writing fiction or nonfiction I have found.
