Mani and I: Memoirs of a Banarasi Karachiite

Many books have been written by people who migrated from Pakistan to India during the partition, but few by persons who migrated to Pakistan. Asif Siddiqi now tries to bridge this gap. The pangs of migration, the innocence of adolescence, the journey to England for further education, the cushy life and grand luxury of the hotel world, culminating in the creation of a microfinancing network that has helped thousands of the poor, are all delightfully described in a light-hearted vein.
