Over the course of a night in police custody, a young woman tries
to understand the rage that led her to assault a refugee on the
Paris metro. She too is a foreigner, now earning a living as an
interpreter for asylum seekers in the outskirts of the city.
Translating the stories of men and women who come from her country
of birth, into the language of her country of citizenship, Sinha's
narrator finds herself caught up in a tangle of lies and truths.
Armed with an acerbic sense of humour she exposes prejudices on all
sides.
