| Description: |
A powerful second novel from the author of From Somalia with Love that dramatises the tensions for teenagers from traditional Asian families growing up in modern society. |
| Synopsis: |
Farhana swallowed and reached for the hijab. But then she saw with absolute clarity the weird looks from the other girls at school, and the smirks from the guys. Did she dare? And then there was Malik... What should she do about him? Faraz was thinking about Skrooz and the lads. Soon he would finally have the respect of the other kids at school. But at what price? He heard Skrooz's voice, sharp as a switchblade: "This thing is powerful, blud. But you have to earn it, see? Just a few more errands for me..." They're twins, born 6 minutes apart. Both are in turmooil and both have life-changing choices to make, against the peaceful backdrop of Ramadan. Do Farhana and Faraz have enough courage to do the right thing? And can they help each other - or will one of them draw the other towards catastrophe?To watch a trailer for Boy vs. Girl click hereThis title is also available as an ebook, in either Kindle, ePub or Adobe ebook editions |
