Synopsis
In Lion's Granddaughter and Other Stories, Yasmin Ladha integrates the wisdom of her Indian-Muslim heritage and her experience as a Canadian immigrant in a rich and colourfully woven collection of stories which celebrate the female spirit.
We become Yasmin Ladha's "Readerji," sharing her "women stories." They range from Lion's Granddaghter, set in the political and social upheaval of newly independent Tanzania, to Be A Doctor, which articulates the losses and desires of a family newly immigrated to Canada.
