The Reluctant Fundamentalist

“What happens is my mind starts to go in circles, thinking and thinking, and then I can't sleep. And once a couple of days go by, if you haven't slept, you start to get sick. You can't eat. You start to cry. It just feeds on itself.”

This book is not actually about religious fundamentalism, one might think that based on the title, but Hamid is clever that way. Captivating read due to both characters and writing style.
