Karachi You're Killing Me-PB

Ayesha is a twenty-something reporter in one of the world's most dangerous cities. Her assignments range from showing up at bomb sites and picking her way through scattered body parts to interviewing her boss's niece the couture-cupcake designer. In between dicing with death and absurdity Ayesha despairs over the likelihood of ever meeting a nice guy someone like her old friend Saad whose shoulder she cries on after every romantic misadventure. Her choices seem limited to narcissistic adrenaline-chasing reporters who'll do anything to get their next story to the spoilt offspring of the Karachi elite who'll do anything to cure their boredom. Her most pressing problem however is how to straighten her hair during the chronic power outages. Karachi You're Killing Me! is Bridget Jones's Diary meets the Diary of a Social Butterfly a comedy of manners in a city with none.
