Description
A British Indian Muslim woman, Yasmin Ghorami, has always lived by the rules—until her carefully arranged engagement to her white fiancé, Joe Sangster, forces two families to collide in the intimate space of London life. As their relationship moves from private commitment to public expectation, cultural assumptions, generational pressures, and personal desires begin to test what “love” and “marriage” are meant to mean. With sharp emotional realism and a keen eye for social nuance, this novel explores identity, belonging, and the negotiations required when tradition meets modernity. Monica Ali’s distinctive, character-driven style brings humor and tension to the forefront, making the stakes feel both deeply personal and unmistakably universal.
