When their relationship is discovered by an Aunty in the community, Razia must choose between her family and her own future.Punctuated by both joy and loss, full of 80s music and beloved novels, Roses, in the Mouth of a Lion is a new classic: a fiercely compassionate comingofage story of a girl struggling to reconcile her heritage and faith with her desire to be true to herself.
