NRP: Non-Resident Pakistani (Burger Style)
He changed his name in California. But Karachi still knows him as Shayan.
NRP is a powerful novel about identity, disconnection, and coming home to the place that never quite left you. After 30 years in the U.S., Sean Zaidi returns to Karachi — not just to expand his tech business, but to rebuild the city he once called home. What begins as a business venture becomes a personal journey through culture, chaos, and legacy.
Alongside childhood friends, real challenges, and three very different women, Sean must decide what kind of man — and what kind of Pakistani — he wants to be.
This is a novel about home. Not the one you left… the one you’re still building.
