Stroke the Tiger's Tail

'There is a name given to girl children which means 'pomegranate flower'. Anargul. You have to live in a land of pomegranate trees to give a name like that. You have to understand the pomegranate flower is the most beautiful of all blossoms. It opens out red from the bud like a woman shaking out the wrinkles of a silk skirt.' Set in Central Asia, Stroke the Tiger's Tail follows the life of an extended family struggling to deal with the consequences of childhood betrayal. Can they overcome the damage wrought by years of secrecy? Or will it bring destruction to all involved?
