あらすじ・解説

An exhilarating debut by a young writer from Pakistan: provocative, funny, disarmingly original stories that upend traditional notions of identity and family, and peer into the vulnerable workings of the human heart.

From the high-stakes worlds of television and politics to the intimate corridors of home—including the bedroom—these wryly observed, deeply revealing stories look at life in Pakistan with humor, compassion, psychological acuity, and emotional immediacy. Childhood best friends agree to marry in order to keep their sexuality a secret. A young woman with an anxiety disorder discovers the numbing pleasures of an illicit love affair. A radicalized student's preparations for his sister's wedding involve beating up the groom. An actress is forced to grow up fast on the set of her first major tv show, where the real intrigue takes place off-screen. Every story bears witness to the all-too-universal desire to be loved, and what happens when this longing gets pushed to its limits. Are You Enjoying? is a free-spirited, confident, indelible introduction to a galvanizing new talent.

批評家のレビュー

LONGLISTED FOR THE STORY PRIZE

“Fresh, intelligent, and bold: Mira Sethi’s stories open up fascinating slices of contemporary life in Pakistan.” —Mohsin Hamid, author of Exit West

“Mira Sethi has an extraordinary talent for capturing the vulnerability of people caught in the contrasting currents of modernity and the past. These are complex, delicate stories, alert to both the comic and the tragic. And while they focus on characters changing in a changing society, there is a timelessness about Sethi’s work that I think comes from her precise observations that a reader will remember like lines of poetry, for their beauty.” —Kiran Desai, Booker Prize–winning author of The Inheritance of Loss

“A delightfully daring debut . . . Enthralling, and at times heart-rending . . . A sweeping critical reflection on South Asian society, set in the day-to-day hustle and bustle of life in contemporary Pakistan . . . Sethi pulls back the curtain of propriety to highlight hypocrisies and scandals not for the sole sake of exposing them, but to give a glimpse into the emotions and experiences . . . Sethi crafts characters with layered complexities.”The National
