A Case Of Exploding Mangoes

There is an ancient saying that when lovers fall out, a plane goes down. This is the story of one such plane. Why did a Hercules C130, the world`s sturdiest plane, carrying Pakistan`s military dictator General Zia ul Haq, go down on 17 August, 1988? Was it because of: mechanical failure, human error, the CIA`s impatience, a blind woman`s curse, generals not happy with their pension plans, the mango season or could it be your narrator, Ali Shigri? Teasing, provocative, and very, very funny, Mohammed Hanif`s debut novel takes one of the subcontinent`s enduring mysteries and out if it spins a tale as rich and colourful as a beggar`s dream.
