Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Meer Syal has created an indelible portrait of a close-knit group of Indian women living in London. Caught between two cultures, three childhood friends—Chila, Sunita, and Tania—are expected to revert to being obedient mothers and wives. But their world explodes when Tania makes a documentary, starring Chila and Sunita, about contemporary urban Indian Life. The result is an unforgettable story of friendship, marriage, betrayal, and the difficult choices woman face.

Synopsis:

An Indian "Waiting to Exhale", this hilarious and moving new novel by the award-winning author of "Anita and Me" is the indelible portrait of a group of Indian women living in London and what happens when one of them makes a documentary starring the other two.
