Meatless Days
Sara Suleri Goodyear
A memoir of postcolonial Pakistan that interweaves the country's violent history with the author's intimate memories of family and cultural identity. Suleri recounts her mixed heritage, Welsh mother, and Pakistani father, a prominent political journalist. Her finely wrought storytelling transports readers through Pakistan, Britain, and the United States, examining familial relationships and sense of place. Meatless Days is a jewel of insight and beauty that examines cultural identity, political upheaval, and exile.

Did you read a better memoir than Meatless Days?
It feels like the end of the world to know that Sara Suleri is no more. What a book. What a woman. What a huge loss.
