In Other Rooms, Other Wonders is a collection of short stories written by Pakistani-American author Daniyal Mueenuddin,[1][2][3][4] who has also worked as a journalist, lawyer and a businessman.

[7] The stories uncovers a variegated society in which people's social status and expectations are understood without being explained, and in which the class system and poverty are shown to influence any decision made at a critical moment in the characters' lives.

The book consists of eight linked stories written in Pakistan in the 1970s, '80s and '90s, and describe Pakistani culture from within.

[3] Sonny Mehta, editor-in-chief and chairman of Bertelsmann AG's Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, says; "The Pakistani writers are addressing change and what's happening today in the world.

"[3]Poet and Writer Magazine writes; "Mueenuddin's book investigates life in his native Pakistan (he was also raised in Massachusetts) through the lenses of individuals in different stations, from an electrician to a woman servant to a farm manager, a position the author himself occupies today.
