My View:
One of the recent books which grabbed my attention, Bahir is the story of a girl born in Pakistan who travels across the Middle East, and has an unusually turbulent life, stumbling from one misfortune to another and managing to snatch misery from the jaws of hope and resurrecting herself every time you count her out, and repeating this so many times!
