All eleven stories illuminate the subtleties of Muslim immigrant experience in Britain: comic culture clash and deep spiritual struggles, from the title story, which tells of the tragic death of the narrator's brother; in another, romance is tentative in a Scottish kebab shop. One of the stories, 'The Museum', won the first Caine Prize for African Writing (2000).This reprint includes two new stories which did not appear in the first edition.
