Warm, witty, and insightful, Syal captures the complexities of British-Asian life with her trademark humour and heart. Trending among readers who love female friendship stories, diaspora identity themes, and fiction that makes you laugh and ache in equal measure.
Perfect for fans of Monica Ali (Brick Lane), Zadie Smith (White Teeth), and Jhumpa Lahiri (The Namesake). Pair with Syal’s Anita and Me for a complete Meera Syal British-Asian duo.
