‘AMERICAN DERVISH’

22 January 2012 / ,
Hayat Shah was captivated by Mina long before he met her as his mother’s beautiful, brilliant friend is a family legend. When he learns that Mina is leaving Pakistan to live in America, Hayat is thrilled. What no one expects is that when Mina shows Hayat the beauty of the Quran, it will utterly transform him. But when Mina catches the eye of a Jewish doctor, Hayat’s jealousy is enflamed by the community’s anti-Semitism.
