Uraan

Uraan — "flight" — follows Sana, Sawera and Ayesha: three educated Pakistani women who begin as complete strangers to one another, and whom fate draws together in a way none of them could have foreseen.

Umera Ahmed writes about freedom and the price of it — about injustice, endurance, and what it costs a woman to insist on her own life. The novel was adapted for television in 2010. One of the most widely read Urdu novelists and screenwriters of her generation.
