Tariq Khan invites readers on a geographical, historical, political, and personal journey in his riveting memoir, The Looking Glass Voyage. A Pukhtoon from the Peshawar region of northwest Pakistan, Mr. Khan lived through the historical events of the 1950s and 60s in Pakistan, and he documents the unrest of those years as he experienced them as a young man. Tales of his family and school years reflect the circumstances of the times and reveal an ambitious student committed to his loved ones and possessing valuable physical and intellectual aptitudes.
The memoir chronicles Mr. Khan's medical school studies and preparations for establishing his practice. His experiences in various cities and hospital settings shine a light on the cultures he lived in as an adult-from Saudi Arabia to England to the UAE. Accompanied by stories of an adventurous youth, a romantic liaison, and an arranged marriage, this autobiography will educate and entertain readers.
In Mr. Khan's own words, The Looking Glass Voyage gives a first-hand glimpse into times past and the significant happenings of that era: "I was witness to great events in the history of the world in real-time: the dismemberment of my country of birth, and the formation of Bangladesh, in 1971; experiencing Iran in the heady days, at the peak years of the Shah of Iran ..." This "witness" is engaging and welcoming to readers of all ages and backgrounds as he makes history, his story."
