Exploding Mangoes was the first book I read about Pakistan. Here's a list:
A little dry for my taste but I couldn't recommend this more. This book charts the social consequences of state policies and economic factors over the whole time period from '47 to now.
Very important book if you want to avoid the conspiracy theories floating about Taliban and our role in their rise.
Interested in Pakistan army's relationship with mullahs over the years? This is a must-read.
Title is self explanatory.
A very informative and interesting two part series on what joins the non-Arab muslims of the world, with a large portion about Pakistan. Written by Nobel Laureate for Literature Naipaul, behnoi of Maj. Gen. Ameer Faisal Alvi who was assassinated in 2008 in Islamabad.
A good overview of what makes Pakistan run the way it does.
Haven't read it but have heard good things about it.
Haven't read it yet.
If you like sci-fi, try The Word for World is Forest, by Ursula K. Le Guin. I also just finished reading Isaac Asimov's The End of Eternity, which is a terrific book.
For recent, general literature I cannot recommend highly enough The Reluctant Fundamentalist, by Moshin Hamid. It's brilliant.
I found The Reluctant Fundamentalist (Mohsin Hamid) to be super interesting.
