UNIMAGINED is the hilarious and captivating memoir of a Muslim boy born in Pakistan, who moves to London aged one and grows up torn between his Islamic identity and his desire to embrace the West. Imran Ahmad recalls his childhood in a series of vivid shapshots: outrage as deserved victory is snatched away from him in the Karachi Bonnie Baby contest; bitterness as he is tricked out of his collection of Tarzan bubble-gum cards by junior con artists; the heady early taste of success in the Metropolitan Police schools quiz; uncertainty as he seeks to become a doctor, like all good Asian boys; bewilderment as he tries to learn about women at university; and shock at experiencing racism in its many forms. Deliciously funny and painfully insightful, UNIMAGINED is truly a joy to read.
