So being in France means a lack of english books. I might have died from lacking of vitamin BO (Book), BUT a hero emerged from the shadows... his name was Brendan O'Brien. This hero sent us english books, and amazing ones at that. So I have just finished reading one of these books and decided to quickly review it.
It gets introduced by the main character, who starts to talk to talk to an American, who he has never met before. The character then starts to recount about his life when he was in America. He talked about how he had to hold down 3 jobs to pay for his high school years in Princeton. Even hough he had a scholar ship. He was always the top of the class. He knew he could get any job he wanted except one that he really wanted. He wasn't sure he would be able to do it. Out of several thousand only 8 were selected for interviews. He made the job. He talks about the luxury and other things but through this the author very smoothly changes from the story to brakes with talking to the American. But the interesting part is that we never actually know exactly what the American says. We only know what the main character says. Any ways. He ends up meeting a really nice girl who turns out to be torn up by the lose of her boy friend that she knew since she was 3.
But eventually it turns out that he looses his high paying job, and returns to his home.
This is an excellent book written by Mohsin Hamid. Out of five stars I would rate a 5. A nice easy and interesting read.
