Description

Hashim and Family is a story of quiet striving and determination, of love and friendship. It follows Hashim as he leaves behind his homeland to seek his fortune in England, introducing him to life in Manchester and the complexities of building a new family. As war breaks out in East Pakistan, the struggle for liberation raises questions about identity, belonging and loyalty. Over the next twenty years, Hashim and those around him must navigate their connection to home and find a way to build a sense of belonging in a new country. This debut novel is a powerful exploration of family ties, migration and the search for a sense of home.
