Bangladesh Author Publishes Expose of Seedy Underworld

November 20, 2015 - "An Abyss in the Soul," a new book by Zaynah Qadir Mahmud, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh, is where wealth abounds and where the adolescent generation has a taste for the dark, seedy world of foreign, exotic drugs. Zaynah Qadir Mahmud chronicles her in-depth experiences with close associates of Bangladesh's fraternity society, which has been traditionally overlooked by affluent parents.

Despite being afforded opportunities, this student population abuses drugs, resulting in countless overdoses and suicides each year.

Mahmud's in-depth inspection of this underground world, which she refers to as an "unstoppable cruel force of nature," offers valuable lessons for change and transformation.

About the Author: Zaynah Qadir Mahmud was born in London, England, and currently resides in Dhaka, Bangladesh, where she works with underprivileged children and women. She is currently studying law.
