«Sette mari tredici fiumi» (Brick Lane) is the contemporary novel by Monica Ali, published by Tropea in paperback (416 pages, in Italian).
Nazneen grows up in a Bangladeshi village convinced that rebelling against fate is futile. Moved to London for an arranged marriage to the much older Chanu Ahmed, she watches life pass by from a flat in the East End. The novel portrays the immigrant experience, cultural clash, and search for identity of London's Bangladeshi community.
«Brick Lane» appears as a subtitle on the cover of this Italian edition, published by Tropea in 2003.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in stories of immigration, identity, and life in the Bangladeshi diaspora.
