The Big Day
批評家のレビュー
'So charming, funny and a pleasure to read. I totally see why Aliya has been called a refreshing new voice' (Jessica George, author of My Name is Maame)
'This book packs a full punch of emotions - I laughed, I groaned, I cringed, but most of all, I fell in love with Noor, her family, and her culture. A beautiful celebration that I wish I could relive all over again' (Jesse Q. Sutanto, USA Today Bestselling author of Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers)
'A hilarious, big-hearted tale grappling with the delights and pressures facing British-Pakistani women today. Ali-Afzal is the desi answer to Sophie Kinsella, Ms Marvel actress' (Mehwish Hayat)
あらすじ・解説
'THE BIG DAY is a big delight... I was rooting for Noor and Dan and their happy ever after throughout. It was a wonderful read' - Cesca Major
***
A funny, heartwarming and captivating novel about a British-Asian mother and daughter, who clash over the plans for the bride's Big Day.
Noor has no interest in getting married (much to the aunties' distress). Growing up she saw firsthand how divorce tears families apart... But then, she falls in love.
Soon, Noor’s engaged and planning an intimate wedding that feels perfect for her and her fiancé Dan. But when Noor discovers her mother Leena also has grand plans for the Big Day, their once-close relationship starts to unravel. Noor can’t understand why Leena is determined to have an elaborate Desi celebration when their lives have been anything but traditional. And after a lifetime following other people’s dreams, Noor is determined not to back down.
As Leena and Noor clash over every point on their to-do lists, it begins to look like there will be two weddings and only one bride. And when family secrets shake the women’s bond further, will there even be a wedding at all?
