The Colour of Mehndi by Nausheen Pasha-Zaidi
Nazli Akram seemed to have it all - a husband, two beautiful sons and
a picturesque house in the suburbs of Arizona. But her outwardly idyllic
existence masked the chaos brewing within the confines of her own
mind. A young Pakistani-American woman, struggling with a failing
marriage and her own sacrificed ambitions, Nazli’s once-promising
future quickly deteriorates as she succumbs to her own personal
demons and follows a dangerous path of despair and mental illness.
But her story is lost through the years until her youngest son - now a
grown man on a quest for his own identity - uncovers the audiotapes of
the mother he doesn’t remember.
Right interpretation of Islamic religion is another thread finely woven
into the main framework of the novel - Manju Joshi, The Tribune
An amazing story of how a while life bad been kept behind the veil for
years - The Telegraph
