Mine is on kindle The Lost Pearl www.amazon.com/dp/B00905G47Y
50 percent proceeds go to Shaukat khanum.
If you want to read it for free it's on the books thread in the Pakistani Readers group. Reviews are much appreciated, particularly from Pakistanis, since that's the setting of the story.

Pkistani writers are source of inspiration for interested youth... as well for many interested readers. In my opinion urdu and english writers in present and from past as ell have been greatly influential.
To talk of Urdu writers u can go even before parttion, if truly pakistani then Nasim Hijazi, Ashfaque Ahmad, Bano Qusia, Mazhar ul islam, mumtaz mufti, mushtaq ahmad yusufi,rahim gul,mustansar hussain tarrar, alim ul haq haqi, haseena moeen,nighat abdullah, asia mirza, Umaira ahmad, nimra ahmad, hashim nadeem... and many others are noteworthy
Pakistani English authors include Ahmad ali, bapsi sidhwa, mohsin hamid, hanif qureshi, kamila shamsie, shaila addullah, tehmina durrani, nadeem aslam, muhammad hanif, uzma aslam khan... these are the english novelists of pakistan i have on my list. there are other influential novelists too.
