Homeboy
About This Book
In New York at the turn of the millennium, three young Pakistani men are making the most of the city. AC is an academic who quotes gangsta rap, Jimbo is a huge Pushtun deejay from the streets of Jersey City, and Chuck is a wide-eyed newcomer who has only just arrived from Pakistan. A few weeks after 9/11, the three set out on a road trip into the American hinterland, hoping to find a fellow Pakistani known as the Shaman, a glamorous and enigmatic figure who has seemingly vanished without a trace. The trip goes terribly wrong, and the friends find themselves in an America that has changed and become tense. H.M. Naqvi's novel is lively, bittersweet and sharply observed. It is an immigrant's story with a mystery at its centre, and also a story of love and loss, introducing a bold new voice in contemporary fiction.
