Parini Shroff recommends

Fundamentally (2025)
Nussaibah Younis
"Impossibly funny whilst darkly probing, Fundamentally is the whole package: a raunchy, irreverent, touching, and daring debut with slicing commentary wrapped in bold, biting humor. It slyly and systematically rejects our swallowed concepts of heroes and who is correct, and posits instead the better question: what is right?"

Call Her Freedom (2025)
Tara Dorabji
"A striking, essential read set against an ongoing military occupation and pulsing with empathy and beauty. Dorabji balances the political and personal with moving portraits of characters who find love and redemption on a ceaseless quest for freedom, despite every unthinkable, unspeakable cruelty hurled in their paths."

My Mother Cursed My Name (2024)
Anamely Salgado Reyes
"My Mother Cursed My Name is a warm, witty and magical read about healing in order to forgive and forgiving in order to heal. Three generations of wildly different and fierce mothers and daughters tumbling toward a greater understanding of each other and themselves."
