The Story Of A Widow

This is a very readable but ultimately stupid book -poor characterisation (= cardborad characters with no depth) and ironically a very low middle class small town Pakistani chauvanistic view point which equates a woman finding herself as being able to explore new clothes ,colours and make up ! As a typical low middle class small town Pakistani chauvanistic boy would, Mr Farooqi , no doubt, fancies himself a "liberal" and "feminist". The book would have been offensive had it not been so obviously foolish .
