No Exit (novel)

|
No Exit is the debut novel of Areeba Nasir, published in 2012 by Pigeon Books. According to The Milli Gazette, "Being a debut novel, the occasional mush and melodrama is understandable. So is the stridency about hijab, a position which could have been stated in milder terms. All said, No Exit makes interesting reading." According to The Hindu, "Areeba Nasir’s debut novel No Exit<nowiki/>' incorporates within its texture a discourse on Kashmir, an oft-repeated topic, but Areeba’s tantalising narration goes well beyond the dross. The protagonist Ruslan, undeterred by discrimination, does not curse the darkness but searches for the light within. His story poignantly depicts wanton destruction perpetrated by the militants and powers-that-be with equal vigour. It is a tale of his homeland once considered a paradise on the earth. His tale has an epic sweep as it presents a world view which is unique and universal at the same time. Areeba does not work around a mushy plot, but brings together the diverse stands of culture, religion and regional affiliations that shape one’s personality." See Also
