When She Went Away

'Leaving you and the kids. Khudahafiz.'

That was all the Post-it on the fridge said. Since then, the sole focus of Maria's life has been to find her mother and bring her home, so that life could go back to normal. But as Maria grapples with a house in shambles, an angry father, a sullen brother, and her growing attraction for the class hero, the Basketball Guy, she slowly uncovers clues about Ammi's disappearance. Was Ammi truly the loving mother she had believed her to be?

An insightful and funny tale of growing up with a single parent from Andaleeb Wajid, the acclaimed author of several novels including More Than Just Biryani.
