About The Unlikely Adventures of the Shergill Sisters by Balli Kaur Jaswal
After their mother asks them to travel together to the Golden Temple in Amritsar and carry out her final rites, the estranged Shergill sisters set off for India. Rajni is a dutiful school principal who has vowed never to return; Jezmeen, a struggling actress, is reeling from losing her television job; and Shirina is weighing pressure from her wealthy in-laws against her own wishes.
Set around this family pilgrimage, Balli Kaur Jaswal’s 2019 novel explores sisterhood, heritage, and tensions between tradition and modernity in an immigrant family. The sisters’ journey also brings them closer to the story of an earlier trip to India that shaped their mother’s life. It will suit readers looking for contemporary family fiction with a travel narrative and a focus on women’s experiences.
