The story
Karim Amir is a mixed-race 17-year-old who lives in a South London suburb during the 1970s.
With an English mother and a Pakistani father, Karim is uncertain of his cultural identity.
As his father becomes a kind of spiritual guru to the surrounding middle-class neighbours, Karim begins to explore his cultural roots with hopes that he will achieve sexual and racial self-realisation.
