Aarzu All Around
Marzieh Abbas
Recently orphaned Aarzu lives with her aunt and uncle in Karachi, Pakistan, alongside her younger sister. She wants to play cricket like the boys around her, but her uncle refuses to allow it. When her sister needs urgent medical care and money is scarce, Aarzu searches for paid work. Because the available job is for boys, she disguises herself as a turban-wearing boy. Her story is told in several poetic forms.
