Event Details : 'How To Fight Islamist Terror From The Missionary Position' book launch by Tabish Khair.
An acerbic commentary on the times, the novel traces three men – the flamboyant Ravi, the fundamentalist Karim and the unnamed and pragmatic Pakistani narrator – whose trajectories cross in Denmark. As the unnamed narrator copes with his divorce, and Ravi, despite his exterior of sceptical flamboyance falls deeply in love with a beautiful woman who is incapable of responding in kind, Karim – their landlord – goes on with his job as a cab-driver and his regular Friday Quran sessions. But is he going on with something else? Who is Karim? Why does he disappear suddenly at times or receive mysterious phone calls?
When a ‘terrorist attack’ takes place in town, all three men find themselves embroiled in doubt, suspicion and, perhaps, danger.
