Fundamentalists

In a world where fear is constant and religious fundamentalists are the greatest enemies, it is refreshing to read a book (The reluctant Fundamentalist by Mohsin Hamid) that treats the subject light but seriously.
The Reluctant Fundamentalist is written completely from the perspective of a man sitting in a café in Afghanistan and reconstructs his life story to a man unknown to us. The end is predictable, but at the same time it takes you by surprise when it finally comes.
