With an Ivy League education, a quiet charm, and two acclaimed novels that expertly explore the dissonance of a global world, Mohsin Hamid is the face of a literary flowering in Pakistan.

Love is what you are already. Love doesn’t seek anything. It’s already complete. It doesn’t want, doesn’t need, has no shoulds. It already has everything it wants, it already is everything it wants, just the way it wants it. So when I hear people say that they love someone and want to be loved in return, I know they’re not talking about love. They’re talking about something else.
Seeking love is how you lose the awareness of love. But you can only lose awareness of it, not the state. That’s not an option, because love is what we all are.
I already have everything. We all do

The doormen at Hilton
As they hail their words
Courteously and yet present
In them,
This old human pain,
As they extend their hands
For tips,
As they greet
At odd hours
As days turn into nights
With words and their presence
To earn and to bring
Liquor, bread, and peace
We walk in we walk out
Forget they not our faces
But we do and their pain!
