Kartography

Начало книги

I’d like to thank all the usual suspects. In addition, I must mention:

Agha Shahid Ali, for insisting I ‘do something’ with the image of the spinning globe.

Zain Mustafa, for drives through Karachi, and lunar streets.

Rehana Hakim, for giving me access to the Newsline archives.

Zerxes Spencer, for the stream of post-midnight e-mails which kept me company while I was at work on the first draft of this novel.

Aisha Rahman and Deepak Sathe, for the sofa-bed.

Marian McCarthy, for understanding where this book could go, and insisting I take it there.

It would be impossible to mention all the books, articles and websites I consulted while working on this novel. But I would like to mention the following, which were of particular help.

Ali, Tariq. Can Pakistan Survive? Verso, 1983.

Baillie, Alexander F. Kurrachee Past, Present and Future. Oxford, 1975.

Cosgrove, Denis (ed.), Mappings. Reaktion Books, 1999.
