About this book

This unusual autobiography is a provocative and gripping account of the life of a Pakistani Air Force pilot. An Epicurean approach to life is promoted in the book along with a rejection for the religious fervor that currently plagues the Muslim world. An intellectual at heart, the author thoughtfully describes his love for knowledge and self-improvement whilst portraying a righteous disdain for Islamist warriors, who are a drag on civil society.This exciting novel reads like an NC-17 version of "Blow" combined with the philosophical underpinnings of "On the Nature of Things".This book is a must-read, for True Crime & true story, full of, Humor. You will think the author is talking to you in a smooth, unruffled manner.Dari's childhood was turbulent at best. Dari joined an elite group of fighter pilots. Dari left the military and immigrated to the United States at aged 24. Dari then takes us on a roller coaster ride of his life with terrifying accounts of drug deals and drug running as he flies his plane across the Mexican / American borders. He talks explicitly about stabbings, shootings, drug deals that went terribly wrong, & being interrogated by the FBI.Dari trip back to Pakistan with his cavalier attitude of within a month he would find and marry a Pakistan wife just to have kids. Love never entered into the equation. He had 2 children whom he loves dearly, but this does not slow him down now as he needs a living to support his children.Dari's sexual escapades of clubbing, women, sexual infidelities, and drugs have you wondering how this guy survived on razor's edge as long as he did without getting killed or contracting Aids. Dari also takes many a swipe at Pakistan and Islamic religion and its followers. From an agnostic look on religion he pulls no punchesThe author takes you on a wild & passionate story of his life which captures you from the beginning. Eventually life catches up when Dari gets shot, point blank, in his home by the beach. Who did this and why? Was it drugs or payback? Dari will now take you on this unstoppable journey of life as a paraplegic wheelchair bound.The story is unusual sometimes with his unbelievable philosophy on his personal life but, nevertheless an incredible story.
