My bookaholic friends from India, you might like this new novel on a Sikh family growing up in the Midlands, England. Featuring race & caste & described as a a satirical masterpiece by the reviewer, Melissa Katsoulis, Marriage Material by Sathnam Sanghera is going to be out in London, in the stores on 26th September. That means the Commonwealth countries too. Quoted from the article: "...it’s fiction, intertwining the story of a family of Sixties Punjabi immigrants with their descendant, Arjan, the present-day narrator who opens the book with a razor-sharp disquisition on the trials of being an Asian newsagent. There are few more stereotypical things you can do as an Asian man, few more profound ways of wiping out your character and individuality, short of becoming a doctor, that is. Or fixing computers for a living. Or writing a book about arranged marriages.”
