Description
Western Lane is a deeply moving novel about grief, sisterhood and a teenage girl's struggle to transcend herself. When her mother dies, Gopi's father enlists her in a training regimen that becomes her world.
The game of squash becomes her refuge, guided by its rhythms: the serve, the volley, the drive, the shot and its echo. But on the court, she is not alone - she is with her pa, Ged, and the players who have come before her. This unforgettable coming-of-age story explores the closeness of sisterhood, the immigrant experience, and the collective overcoming of grief.
