Set in the gritty Tower Hamlets area of East London, Brick Lane is the story of
Nazneen, an Asian immigrant girl and how she deals with issues of love, cultural
differences and the human spirit. Nazneen is forced into an arranged marriage
with a much older man whose expectations of life are miserably low. When they
flee the oppression of their Bangladeshi village for a high-rise block in the
East End, she finds herself cloistered and dependent on her husband. It soon
becomes apparent that of the two, she is the real survivor and more able to deal
with the ways of the world and the vagaries of human behavior. Through her
friendship with another Asian girl, she begins to understand the unsettling ways
of her new homeland.
