Trespassing,Writer : Uzma Aslam Khan


Uzma Aslam Khan was born in Lahore. Soon after her birth, her parents moved to the Philippines and then to Japan and England. In 1979, they returned to Pakistan and settled in Karachi. Many geographies have shaped me, Uzma says and no wonder this cultural diversity has helped her write good fiction all along. Uzma is the author of four novels. Her second novel Trespassing was shortlisted for Commonwealth Prize Eurasia 2003 and has been translated into 13 languages. Her latest novel Thinner Than Skin was nominated for Man Asian Literary Prize 2012. She currently lives in the USA.

Trespassing,Writer : Uzma Aslam Khan

About This Book:

Language: English

Standing in a room with eight thousand tiny creatures, witnessing them perform a dance that few humans even knew occurred; this was life. Everywhere she looked, each caterpillar nosed the air like a wand and out passed silk. They sashayed to the left and swivelled to the right. They bobbed and undulated, dotting the air in figure-eights. They worked ceaselessly for three days and nights, with material entirely of their own, and with nothing to orchestrate them besides their own internal clock. Each, a perfectly self-contained unit of life.

Trespassing is intricately and delicately made. Its characters-and their desti nies are utterly clear before us and the reader is driven hurriedly through the book seeking shelter-for the characters they have come to love as much as for themselves.
