Mohsin Hamid

Mohsin Hamid is the author of five novels, including The Reluctant Fundamentalist, How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia, and Exit West. All display Hamid’s lyrical prose, his acute understanding of some of the most dire conflicts faced by our modern world, and his belief in the immense and near-magical power of fiction. In his newest novel The Last White Man, Hamid writes about racial metamorphosis. On August 2, 2022, Mohsin Hamid came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco for an on-stage conversation with Alexis Madrigal, co-host of KQED’s Forum and a contributing writer at The Atlantic.
