Résumé

India, August 1947: Fleeing from their burnt-out village as civil war rages in the Punjab, Marvinder and Jaspal are separated from their mother, Jhoti. Marvinder has already saved her brother's life once, but now they both face a daily fight for survival. Together they escape across India and nearly halfway around the world to England, to find a father they hardly know in a new, hostile culture. A powerful story of culture, class, family and faith set against the backdrop of Indian independence and the Partition of India and Pakistan.
Perfect for fans of The Bone Sparrow, Morris Gleitzman's Once, and Katherine Rundell's The Wolf Wilder.

Biographie de Jamila Gavin

Jamila Gavin was born in Mussoorie, India, in the foothills of the Himalayas. With an Indian father and an English mother, she inherited two rich cultures that ran side by side throughout her life and always made her feel she belonged to both countries. Jamila's family moved to England when she was 11. She studied music and worked for the BBC before having a family of her own and becoming a children's writer, wanting to reflect the multicultural world in which she and her children now lived.
