En août 2020, alors que le monde entier était encore sous le choc des effets humains et économiques de la pandémie de Cocid-19, Paul Veyret a interviewé le romancier pakistanais Mohsin Hamid via Zoom. La conversation a commencé par des considérations sur les limites et la nature politiquement frauduleuse du « Naya Pakistan » du Premier ministre Imran Khan, puis s’est engagée dans une exploration des quatre romans de Mohsin Hamid : Moth Smoke, The Reluctant Fundamentalist, How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia and Exit West. Hamid développe son point de vue sur la fiction pakistanaise, les différentes crises que traversent les nations émergentes, et comment la philosophie soufie et Italo Calvino sous-tendent son écriture. |
