Short, sharp and sassy, this collection of satirical sketches snaps a metaphorical finger in front of our eyes. It tells us to wake up and look around before it is too late and and it does so with no great vim and vigour. The hallmark of Asghar Wajahat's writing is its steadfast refusal to strike any loud notes.
