I also read Moth Smoke by Mohsin Ahmed and liked it. I've read Blasphemy by Tahmina Durrani and enjoyed reading it; pretty scandalous book that is supposedly based on a true story.
I've read books by Bapsi Sidhwa.
Don't know of any other Pakistani authors. But I'm a Pakistani and aspire to be an author one day, InshaAllah. It's been a fantasy of mine for quite some time.
As far as desi authors are concerned, I've read several books written by Indian authors that I've enjoyed.
