A fresh  funny and accessible retelling of Jane Austen's classic story  with witty black and

poor. So when a distant relative offers to take her in - giving her the opportunity to grow up

towards her. Her only friend amongst them is Edmund  who tries his best to help her be happy.

before? Ayisha Malik is a British Muslim  lifelong Londoner and lover of books. She has read
