Book Description:

Debut literary novel set in Asian community in London's East End - the story of a village girl from Bangladesh and how she makes the urban village of Brick Lane her new home - by a stunning new talent.
'Focusing on a cross-section of the Bangladeshi community in Tower Hamlets, a community all but invisible to the rest of London, Ali's novel is warm, shrewd, startling, and hugely readable; the sort of book you race through greedily.' OBSERVER
