How does a harmless man end up in prison?
Mr. Wahid Shah is a Londoner of Pakistani descent, an accountant, a devoted husband, a fan of classical music. He is also perpetually on guard against the onslaught of unhygienic terrors from a world full of contagion.
When one day he dons a surgical mask in order to avoid bacteria on the London Underground his quiet life is turned upside down he is no longer seen as just another citizen but as a dangerous radical. Suddenly a victim of a paranoia incited by the media in the so-called "War on Terror" he is met with violence. Now he is cast into a dark, excruciating journey through cruelty, doubt and disbelief. As hidden traumas emerge, Wahid has to rethink his own past, present and future.
"You may think God has abandoned you, but He has not," the imam told him. No, abandonment would indicate a lack of interest. Certainly there was too much happening for God to be uninterested. God created the world supposedly because He loved to be known. Perhaps He also loved to be entertained if so, Wahid was a character on a cosmic gag reel, performing pratfalls and sight gags for His pleasure. Every time he rose up, the heavens knocked him down, landing him on his ever-skinnier buttocks, weakening him with every massive blow.
Mister Shah edition by Christian DeFeo Literature Fiction eBooks
In an all-too-realistic scenario, anti-Muslim prejudice, a misunderstanding, and the tense political climate in the UK collide, resulting in the imprisonment of an innocent man. Beautifully written, the novel leads us through the dangers present when cultures clash, while simultaneously offering a peek into the challenging world of OCD and a deeply affecting love story. It's a tricky feat to make all three stories work, but DeFeo pulls it off, even resisting the temptation to tie the ending into too neat a knot. A compelling story that's hard to put down.Product details

Mister Shah edition by Christian DeFeo Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Mister Shah is a very well written book about a man crippled by his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and a world that views this mild mannered man as a threat due to his ethnicity and his religion. During the book, Wahid Shah struggles with God and why He would allow Wahid to be imprisioned and hurt greatly. He struggles with his wife and how he will be able to speak to her after his struggles in prison. Originally written for an United Kingdom audience, but as an American reader, I can say it translates quite well. I read quite a lot and this was easily my favorite book all year. Add it to your library; you won't regret it.
One of my book club's selections, this was a pleasant surprise. It was excellent and provided good material for a discussion. Well-written and thought-provoking.
