Shamsie's blistering humour and ear for dialogue scorches through their whirl of whisky and witticisms' - Observer'You will notice very quickly that you're reading a book by someone who can write … Above all, Kartography is a love story. And if you're not sniffling by, or in fact on, page 113, you're reading the wrong book' - Guardian_______________BY THE ACCLAIMED WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2018SHORTLISTED FOR THE JOHN LLEWELLYN RHYS PRIZE_______________Soul mates from birth, Karim and Raheen finish one another's sentences, speak in anagrams and lie spine to spine.

It beats in their hearts - violent, polluted, corrupt, vibrant, brave and ultimately, home.

As the years go by they let a barrier of silence build between them until, finally, they are brought together during a dry summer of strikes and ethnic violence and their relationship is poised between strained friendship and fated love. _______________'Perceptive, funny and poignant' - Times Literary Supplement'A touching love story, with the city of Karachi beating at its heart' - Daily Mail'A gorgeous novel of perimeters and boundaries, of the regions – literal and figurative – in which we’re comfortable moving about and those through which we’d rather not travel' - Los Angeles Times
