American Dervish
Literarischer Roman von Ayad Akhtar
Hayat Shah was captivated by Mina long before he met her: his mother’s beautiful, brilliant friend is a family legend. When he learns that Mina is leaving Pakistan to live with the Shahs in America, Hayat is thrilled. Hayat’s father is less enthusiastic. Ever wary of fundamentalism, he doesn’t relish the idea of Mina’s fervid devotion under his roof. What no one expects is that when Mina shows Hayat the beauty of the Quran, it will utterly transform him.
