このコンテンツについて
A mesmerizing debut novel set in a tightly knit Pakistani American community where a young doctor gets an unexpected second chance with the first love she never got over when he becomes one of the most eligible bachelors in town.
The Ibrahim family is facing a crucial moment: Their patriarch just lost his fortune as the result of a Ponzi scheme, and the family is picking up the pieces. At the family’s core is Asma—successful doctor and the long-suffering middle daughter who stepped into the family center after the death of her beloved mother years ago. Despite what the prying aunties think, Asma is living the life she has always wanted, fulfilling her childhood dream of becoming a doctor . . . or so she thinks.
In walks Farooq Waheed, Asma’s college sweetheart whose proposal was cruelly rejected by Asma’s aunt and father. Now, eight years later, Farooq has made his fortune by selling his Silicon Valley startup and is widely considered one of the most eligible bachelors in California. As he enters Asma’s social orbit, she finds herself navigating a tricky landscape—her pushy sisters, gossiping aunties, and her father’s expectations—on her path to reconciling the past and winning Farooq back in the present. If there is still time.
Yours, Eventually is a story about a young woman finding the courage to follow her heart and coming to the realization that living your life according to what other people think is no life at all.
批評家のレビュー
“A smart and swoon-worthy novel”
—Marie Claire
"Maznavi’s Pakistani-American Muslim-centered romance pleasingly updates Jane Austen’s 'Persuasion' for the 21st century."
—The Washington Post
"I LOVE this book! Nura Maznavi knocks it out of the park with her debut novel Yours, Eventually, a swoony, romantic, un-put-downable homage to Jane Austen’s classic Persuasion, set in a Muslim American family. I was enthralled by serious, bookish Asma Ibrahim’s courageous journey towards acceptance and self-love, and cheered along while her love story with Captain Wentworth—I mean Farooq Waheed—deliciously unspooled. A delight, from the first page to the last! I can’t wait to see what Maznavi comes up with next!"
—Uzma Jalaluddin, author of Ayesha at Last and Much Ado About Nada
