Ahmad Saber grew up on an all-girls college campus next to a massive fort in Pakistan before his family moved to Canada when he was in high school. While the move totally sucked at the time, it was one of the best things to ever happen to him. He’s now a medical doctor specializing in rheumatology, and when the clinic lights dim, he channels his passion into telling stories full of heart. Ahmad loves Broadway (favorite show = The Phantom of the Opera), Taylor Swift (favorite album = folklore), and chocolate chip cookies (he has crowned New York City’s Culture Espresso’s the best in the world). Ramin Abbas Has MAJOR Questions is his debut novel and is based in part on his own lived experience. Follow him around on social media @TheAhmadSaber or visit his website at SaberBooks.ca.

"Funny, tender, and evocative, RAMIN ABBAS had me laughing out loud, kicking my feet, and clutching my heart in equal measure, with its unique yet all-too-relatable protagonist that keeps you rooting for him to figure out the answers to those Major Questions of faith that could cost him everything and to find the light amidst the darkness of doubt. A queer Muslim journey of the heart that boldly holds on to both a prayer mat and a pride flag.”
