Rafida Noor

Novelist & short-story writer

One of the most loved voices in contemporary fiction. Rafida writes about the quiet inside people and the complicated work of staying close.

Rafida Noor was born in Dhaka. After a master's in Bangla literature, she spent years in journalism before turning to writing and literary work full time.

City loneliness, women's inner lives and the city of memory return again and again in her work. Her novels are loved by readers and critics alike.

“A story is a window that lets outside light in — and also lets you see the dark inside.”
