About this ebook
What happens when the legacy of a father
collides with the dreams of his son?
Widow Jeeto Gill has spent her life working hard and making
sacrifices for her children. Now she looks forward to going back
to her land in the Punjab, eating saag and roti on a verandah
and letting her tired eyes rest on green fields.
Her son Pal seems to have it all but he’s restless. He’s got big
plans for his Daddy’s business and a taste for Johnny Walker
Black Label. However his kind-hearted wife Liz has her own
ideas about what’s best. Meanwhile Pal’s sharp-tongued sister
Cookie runs the tackiest beauty salon in town and harbours a
dark secret.
When their cousin’s destitute wife, Reema, arrives from back
home, the Gills propose to take care of her. Little do they know
that her arrival will change the course of their family’s destiny
forever.
Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti
Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti's first play Behsharam (Shameless) broke box office records when it was produced in 2001. Her second play Behzti (Dishonour) won the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize in 2005. Behzti rocked the world of theatre when it was cancelled after protests in Birmingham, forcing the playwright into hiding, sparking an international debate about offence and freedom of expression. In 2014, Khandan (Family) was co-produced by the Birmingham Rep and the Royal Court Theatre.
