About this product

Product Information

Anita and Me , which has been compared to To Kill a Mockingbird , tells the story of Meena, the daughter of the only Punjabi family in the British village of Tollington. With great warmth and humor, Meera Syal brings to life a quirky, spirited 1960s mining town and creates in her protagonist what the Washington Post calls a female Huck Finn. The novel follows nine-year-old Meena through a year spiced with pilfered sweets and money, bad words, and compulsive, yet inventive, lies. Anita and Me offers a fresh, sassy look at a childhood caught between two cultures.

Reviews
"A rich portrayal of the beauties and betrayals of girlhood friendship." -- Newsday "A well-observed comedy about the clash of two cultures . . . Syal has put her comic talents to good use." -- The Times (London) "A witty, original account of the trials and tribulations of growing up." -- San Francisco Review of Books "Delightful and illuminating." -- Women's Review of Books "Humorous and quirky. Syal has a gift of comedy that she uses to weave this delightful story." -- Library Journal (starred review) "A finalist for England's Guardian Fiction Award, Anita and Me describes with the leisurely pace of a 19th-century narrative a very 20th-century multicultural relationship between two headstrong girls. . . . The reader must search patiently through . . . bustling verbiage for the quieter, more subtle revelations about Meena and her family." --James Wilcox, The New York Times Book Review
