Heroine killin' it in Karachi

By Associated Press in Islamabad | China Daily | Updated: 2014-07-09 07:26

The blurb on the back of Saba Imtiaz's debut novel Karachi, You're Killing Me! compares the book to the single girl's Bible, Bridget Jones's Diary.

I take issue with this.

Bridget Jones would never be able to deal with half of the situations that Imtiaz's heroine, Ayesha, successfully navigates. Sure Ayesha drinks too much, makes some atrociously bad decisions about men and complains relentlessly about her job just as Bridget did.
