Tell us what you though of the episode

🎙️ On this episode of the Kingdom of Dreams Podcast, I sit down with acclaimed author and journalist Saima Mir for a powerful conversation about her book trilogy 'The Khan'. We dive into her personal journey—navigating career highs and lows, confronting failure, and redefining success—while also unpacking the complexities of identity, faith, and the deepening polarization in today’s society.

Saima Mir is a British journalist and author known for her debut crime novel The Khan, which was a Times bestseller and praised for its powerful portrayal of a British-Pakistani woman navigating crime, justice, and family legacy. She has written for major outlets including The Guardian, The Times, and the BBC, and contributed essays to acclaimed anthologies like It’s Not About the Burqa. Born in London and raised in Yorkshire, Mir’s work often explores identity, power, and cultural duality.
