This week Catrina and Elle discuss two Pride and Prejudice adaptations that feature a multicultural point of view. One follows Ayesha Shamsi in a modern-day Muslim Pride and Prejudice love story set in Canada. The other is the story of Trisha Raje, an Indian-American story of family and love set in San Fransisco.
Catrina shares her reading of Ayesha at Last by Uzma Jalaludin. Elle raves about Pride and Prejudice and Other Flavors by Sonali Dev.
