Great
A book you don’t just read in passing. You savour it and find yourself in a pool of love, crime and many twists on several levels. The characters are very authentic and you have pictures in your head while reading. The writing style is convincing and captivating. I won’t give anything away about the content; the blurb offers a glimpse. I can only recommend the book.

Pakistan – A Travel Report 1993
To the book →Pakistan, far more than a travel report
The travel report is a valuable document for everyone who wants to understand what Pakistan is at its core. It manages to build a bridge between the foreign and the familiar without sliding into kitsch. A firm recommendation for explorers looking for the real spark in travel literature.
Here someone writes who does not deliver a “perfect copy” of travel experiences but shares genuine, unfiltered impressions. Every line breathes the spirit of setting out and honest curiosity. The writing style feels like an ordering resonance to the chaos and the beauty that together make up Pakistan. Heribert Lange describes the hospitality and human warmth in Pakistan with an intensity that makes the country tangible.
