Description

The balance between the exploration of really serious issues and the comedy, humour and romance in this novel is pitch perfect – everything is beautifully and sensitively handled – and as well as exploring these important themes, and developing a great cast of well-realised characters, Anita Rani brilliantly and vividly creates a sense of place and community within this novel.

Anita stops by to discuss how the books she read as a child have shaped her, the transition from writing her memoir to writing fiction and the importance of failure.

So much of the book was devoted to highlighting the historic misogyny in the culture and traditions, so her reliance on this random man felt rather ironic.

Fizzing with energy, hilarity and charm, the Sunday Times bestseller from Countryfile's Anita Rani:'Beautiful' Caitlin Moran'Brilliant' Lemn Sissay'Filled with hope' Nikesh ShuklaAnita Rani was a girl who didn't fit in anywhere. She’s quick to jump in if she notices racism being directed to someone else like an “anti-racist superhero” but doesn’t stand up for herself – or didn’t until recently. Anita shares the lessons she wishes her younger self could have known: 'Freedom is Complicated', 'You Will Fall In Love and Be Loved' and, most importantly, 'Your Anger is Legitimate'. She's fed up with her job and her colleagues, her love life is permanently casual, she's grieving for her dad and if her mother and the aunties don't stop asking her when she's going to settle down and start having babies, she might just lose it.

Plus, I studied the Amritsar massacre as my dissertation at college and more people need to know about this horrible event. She's fed up with her job and her colleagues, her love life is permanently casual, and underpinning everything is the grief of losing her much-loved dad. What she doesn’t bargain for is Sid, her guide being annoyingly handsome with a knack for asking Baby the sort of questions that force her to look at what she really wants out of life. Afterwards, you know, you have a debrief and there wasn’t a woman in the office who wasn’t just like, we love Selena, we want to go for a drink with her.It resulted in “second guessing what people wanted, always wanting to make sure that other people feel alright… and that comes from watching the women in my world facilitate everybody else before themselves”.

You know, the jobs you get offered and the work people thought that you wanted to do, being told that my placement should be at the Asian programmes unit – I got my placement at the BBC music department. The captivating story – which I read in just one day – encourages us to recognise and respect our family history. Publishing Director Melissa Cox acquired world English language and translation rights from Cathryn Summerhayes at Curtis Brown. Sharing the lessons she wishes her younger self could have known: 'Freedom is Complicated', 'Your Anger is Legitimate', and updated with a new chapter, Anita shows how she became the powerhouse she is whilst battling against being too white inside her home and too brown outside of it.She's heads off to India, to find out why her family left, and find out more about the mysterious woman.
