What reading level is We Are Not in Pakistan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Dr. Johnson was just out of medical school then, apple-cheeked, without her streak of grey — Naina remembers her, cold disc of the stethoscope pressed to Naina’s mounding stomach, listening, shaking a very solemn head. “Any day now.”
And there was the due date, Naina’s heels wide apart in stirrups. She remembers every moment of excruciating pain from pushing, pushing, and nothing coming out, not even blood. That she remembers. Then the unwilled dilation, more pushing, more pushing. The brown bal...loon of her stomach trembling as her baby retreated from light.
She refused the knife that would have sliced from navel to her mound of spiky black hair. Refused so loudly, signing papers, more papers, and no one from the family with her. She remembers her own voice, fourteen years younger, still imitating Asha Bhonsle’s soprano because that’s all Daddyji ever played on the tape recorder, screaming, “Leave her. When she’s ready, she’ll come,” the pitying whispers of nurses, all the young doctors crowding about her bed, discussing her case.
