In the City by the Sea by Kamila Shamsie
When his beloved uncle Salman Haq is arrested and charged with treason, 11 year-old Hasan secretly resolves to save him. This leads him to question the Oldest Man, try out magical thinking and, like Hamlet, his father's favourite character, hatch plots that he can never carry through.
Kamila Shamsie was born in Karachi, Pakistan, in 1973. She has received degrees from Hamilton College, Clinton, New York and the University of Massachusetts. This is her first novel.
