Summary

Nutrition label

65% Informative

Gurjinder Basran ’s third novel, The Wedding , is a tragicomical third novel.

The story proceeds from the certainty that any wedding story necessarily involves an obstacle — before, after, or at the altar.

The novel serves up a social commentary that wouldn’t be out of place in a Jane Austen novel.

A ritual ceremony and epic celebration is tinged with melancholy in Basran 's hands.

Brett Josef Grubisic is the author of five novels, including My Two -Faced Luck and The Age of Cities.

He is Salt Spring Island resident and author of My Two Faced Luck .

He has published five books, including one of the best-selling novels in the world.
