Deborah Harper, President of Psychjourney, interviews Mr. Imran Ahmad, author of Unimagined: a Muslim boy meets the West published by Aurum.

Imran Ahmad was born in Pakistan, but moved with his parents to London, at the age of one. Too lazy to get the grades he needed for medical school, he ended up at Stirling University in Scotland, studying Chemistry, learning about Islam and trying to impress women.  Ultimately he was quite successful in Chemistry and became quite knowledgeable about Islam as well, but he didnât impress any women â despite having an Alfa Romeo and a microwave oven (quite possibly the only privately owned microwave on campus at that time.)

In careers brochures, he saw people in business suits travelling and having meetings (This looked like fun to him, but he wasn't sure what the people in suits actually did.) He persuaded one of those big global companies to hire him into their graduate scheme and he ended up working all over the world, including five years living in the United States.

 His book, Unimagined, describes with poignant humor and painful insight the experience of growing up Muslim in the WestUnimagined was selected by no less than three major newspapers (Independent, Guardian, Sydney Morning Herald) in their âbooks of the yearâ lists. The Dutch version was released recently and is called â Mohammed, Jezus en James Bondâ (there being no catchy word for âUnimaginedâ in Dutch, apparently) and a television series is being developed.

 Imran is on the Board of British Muslims for Secular Democracy, which opposes the imposition of theological or regressive cultural values on any individual, group or gender.  Visit his website.
