Description - Granta by Bill Buford

What is Nadia - living over there in Pakistan - really like? A girl of bangles and perfume and lots of money, forever sitting under a palm tree, drinking yogurt?
And what is Nina - living over there in London - really like? A wild animal, a brute hardened by drugs and thieving and massage parlours?
And what happens when Nadia and Nina, two half-sisters who have never met, are brought together for the first time? What will Dad make of it, or Wifey, or the Flounder, or the fat ones, Moonie and Gloomie?
In his first novella, Hanif Kureishi - author of 'My Beautiful Launderette' - has written the most original and comic work of fiction to have appeared in Britain - the 'other' Britain - in many years.
