The curtain raiser for JLF at the British Library features one of our finest contemporary novelists Monica Ali in conversation with Jaishree Misra.

Monica Ali's debut novel, Brick Lane, quickly became an international phenomenon. Love Marriage, the fascinating story of two very different families thrown together by a whirlwind engagement, is her first new book in a decade. An enthralling social comedy, it underscores the worlds of love and marriage, the strains and stories that emerge at the curious intersection of both. In this conversation, Ali reveals the truth of ‘who we are and how we love in today’s Britain’.
