Allen & Unwin UK is excited to offer reading groups 10 advanced copies of The Bandit Queens, the bold, brilliant and hilarious debut novel from Parini Shroff.
About The Bandit Queens
For Geeta, life as a widow is more peaceful than life as a wife…
Until the other women in her village decide they want to be widows, too.
Geeta is believed to have killed her vanished husband – a rumour she hasn’t bothered trying to correct, because a reputation like that can keep a single woman safe in rural India. But when she’s approached for help in ridding another wife of her abusive drunk of a husband, her reluctant agreement sets in motion a chain of events that will change the lives of all the women in the village….
A darkly irreverent and fresh take on a feminist revenge thriller, perfect for readers of My Sister the Serial Killer, How To Kidnap The Rich and Sharon Horgan’s television series Bad Sisters.
