You should definitely enter our giveaway. All you have to do is comment on the review by Friday.

“American Dervish” is more than a well-told story. It is a brutally honest account of Pakistani-American Muslim beliefs and hypocrisy. It betrays to the outside world all the ways that we hurt others and ourselves, through selfish blindness and inflexibility. It reveals our many flaws, and in doing so, it portrays us as what we really are: thoroughly human.
