ABOUT
THE BOOK

An Indian-Muslim family is preparing for their eldest daughter’s wedding. But as Hadia’s marriage – one chosen of love, not tradition – gathers the family back together, there is only one thing on their minds: can Amar, the estranged younger brother of the bride, be trusted to behave himself after three years away?

A Place for Us tells the story of one family and all family life: of coming to terms with the choices we make, of reconciling past and present and of how the smallest decisions can lead to the deepest betrayals.
