Yasmin Ghorami is twenty-six, in training to be a doctor (like her Indian-born father), and engaged to the charismatic, upper-class Joe Sangster, whose formidable mother, Harriet, is a famous feminist. The gulf between families is vast. So, too, is the gulf in sexual experience between Yasmin and Joe. As the wedding day draws near, misunderstandings, infidelities, and long-held secrets upend both Yasmin's relationship and that of her parents, a "love marriage," according to the family lore that Yasmin has believed all her life. A gloriously acute observer of class, sexual mores, and the mysteries of the human heart, Monica Ali has written a captivating social comedy and a profoundly moving, revelatory story of two cultures, two families, and two people trying to understand one another. Monica Ali's Brick Lane was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award, and was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. It was named a best book of the year by The New York Times , Chicago Tribune, The Washington Post, and The Atlantic. 533 Electronic reproduction.|bNew York :|cScribner,|d2022. |nRequires OverDrive Read (file size: N/A KB) or Adobe Digital Editions (file size: 3706 KB) or Kobo app or compatible Kobo device (file size: N/A KB) or Amazon Kindle (file size: N/A KB). 650 7 Literature.|2OverDrive 650 17 Fiction.|2OverDrive 655 7 Electronic books.|2local 776 1 |cOriginal|z9781982181475 914 ODN0007454627
