When Nikki's father dies leaving the family financially strapped, she must return to the traditional Sikh community she has worked so hard to distance herself from.  Taking a job teaching a creative writing course at the community center, Nikki finds herself teaching Punjabi widows how to express their untold stories, unleashing creativity of the most unexpected, and exciting, kind . . . 

A warmly funny and moving tale of desire and its discontents, Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows is a thought-provoking East-meets-West story about community, friendship, preconceptions, and of women defying patriarchal structures.
