Anita and Me

Meera Syal

3.70/5 (2355 ratings)

Read Now Download Now

Like every nine-year-old girl, Meena can’t wait to grow up and break free from her parents but as the daughter of the only Punjabi family in the mining village of Tollington, her struggle for independence is different from most. She wants fishfingers and chips, not just chapati and dhal; she wants an English Christmas, not the usual interminable Punjabi festivities – but more than anything, more than mini-skirts and the freedom to watch Opportunity Knocks, Meena wants to roam the backyards of working-class Tollington with feisty Anita Rutter and her gang.

Written with great warmth and fun and just a hint of wistfulness, Anita and Me is a unique vision of a British childhood in the Sixties, a childhood caught between two cultures, each on the brink of change.
