Reseña del editor
'Take off your clothes I want to see you' Karam said. Just a few words, spoken like a caress made Sarna start wondering. Did he learn such new and passionate techniques in London? When Sarna Singh leaves the lustrous green hills of Uganda for England, streets of cramped old houses were not what she was expecting. Husband Karam has brought her to Clapham Common, hoping that the greenery will remind her of Kampala. Sarna is convinced they have moved to England so he can visit his secret London lady friends. Sarna also has a secret of her own, but she is adept at hiding it. She impresses her English teacher with her attempt at a cutglass accent, and copious gifts of delicious food. With two children to educate, money is scarce, and soon, she is devising weekly shoplifting expeditions to Sainsburys. But Sarna's secret soon becomes an agony for her. To stifle unwanted memories, she cooks zealously, sweetening her thoughts with syrup, or suffocating them with the hottest spice she can find. But when she receives an unexpected letter from back home, her assumed equilibrium is shattered to the skies. It carries an ultimatum she cannot ignore ...Set on an epic backdrop from Partition, the Coronation and Churchill's funeral, to the present day, Priya Basil explores with compassion, the universal complexities of vanity and emotional insecurity, and the burdens of our personal and political pasts. Her stunning portrayal of the trials and tribulations of the Singh family carries universal truths for all of us.
