Description
In contemporary Pakistan, Alys Binat and her four sisters navigate family expectations, social conventions, and the urgent pressure to secure respectable marriages after their father’s financial ruin. When the family encounters the wealthy Darsee clan, Alys finds herself drawn into a charged relationship shaped by pride, prejudice, class, and cultural difference. Witty, incisive, and richly atmospheric, the novel explores gender, tradition, family loyalty, and the complicated pursuit of independence. It offers a vibrant, timely reimagining of a beloved classic while standing firmly on its own.
