    About this ebook

    Two daughters, two mothers, one father, a cardboard cut-out and a foul-mouthed granny – a household at war with itself, and a family which will do anything to protect its’ secrets. Behsharam (Shameless) follows second generation sisters, Jaspal and Sati, through the fantasies, dysfunctions and obsessions of their extraordinary extended family.


    Set in Birmingham, this is a bold, disturbing and at times hilarious exploration of the British Asian experience.

    Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti

    Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti's first play Behsharam (Shameless) broke box office records when it was produced in 2001. Her second play Behzti (Dishonour) won the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize in 2005. Behzti rocked the world of theatre when it was cancelled after protests in Birmingham, forcing the playwright into hiding, sparking an international debate about offence and freedom of expression. In 2014, Khandan (Family) was co-produced by the Birmingham Rep and the Royal Court Theatre.
