{"product_id":"erotic-stories-for-punjabi-widows-a-novel-1","title":"Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows: A Novel","description":"Reese Witherspoon’s Book Club Pick\n\nA lively, sexy, and thought-provoking work of cultural heritage fiction about community, friendship, and women’s lives at all ages―a spicy and alluring mix of Together Tea and Calendar Girls.\nEvery woman has a secret life . . .\nNikki lives in cosmopolitan West London, where she tends bar at the local pub. The daughter of Indian immigrants, she’s spent most of her twenty-odd years distancing herself from the traditional Sikh community of her childhood, preferring a more independent (that is, Western) life. When her father’s death leaves the family financially strapped, Nikki, a law school dropout, impulsively takes a job teaching a \"creative writing\" course at the community center in the beating heart of London’s close-knit Punjabi community.\nIn this heartwarming story of a found family, a miscommunication means the proper Sikh widows who show up are expecting to learn basic English literacy, not the art of short-story writing. When one of the widows finds a book of sexy stories in English and shares it with the class, Nikki realizes that beneath their white dupattas, her students have a wealth of fantasies and memories. Eager to liberate these modest women, she teaches them how to express their untold stories, unleashing creativity of the most unexpected―and exciting―kind.\nAs more women are drawn to the class, Nikki warns her students to keep their work secret from the Brotherhood, a group of highly conservative young men who have appointed themselves the community’s \"moral police.\" But when the widows’ gossip turns them into amateur sleuths with shocking insights into the death of a young wife―a modern woman like Nikki―and some of the class erotica is shared among friends, it sparks a scandal that threatens them all.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0062645110\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0062645110.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Jaswal, Balli Kaur\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
