Amazon Synopsis
The story of nine-year-old Meena, the daughter of the only Punjabi family in the Midlands' mining village of Tollington. The novel provides a vision of British childhood in the 1960s, a childhood caught between two cultures, each on the brink of enormous change.

I really enjoyed this coming of age story and presume there's a fair amount of autobiography in there. Funny and interesting, I'd thoroughly recommend this.
