I read this book after borrowing it from a friend. It was really good. It is the story of a Pakistani man who tells his story to an American - It involves the story of how he initially came to US with his dreams and worked very hard towards it and then upto 9/11 and then how it all disintegrated for him. I really liked the story line and the way the story was written. The ending was a bit disappointing for me!

Just finished reading this novel. Loved it. It is about a couple David and Hulan. David is a lawyer now settled in China and Hulan is his wife who is Chinese. They have a daughter who passed away when she was small. They have been unable to recover from her loss and now are involved in a case of the Three Gorges dam where artifacts are missing and mysterious deaths occur. It is upto both of them to solve this case without causing international scandal. Loved the book and would recommend it. It involves parts of Chinese history too :D
