The End Of Innocence

From the celebrated author of The Diary of a Social Butterfly comes a powerful and haunting departure. Moni Mohsin’s The End of Innocence is a deeply sensitive and accomplished first novel that moves beyond satire to explore the darkest corners of love, retribution, and community complicity in a traditional society.
