Our Entwined Lifelines Teejay Lecapois

A look at the lives and loves of first-generation immigrants in Ontario, Canada. Somali student Khalid Hussein meets secretive Arabian beauty Faheema Abdul-Wahab inside a porno shop in Ottawa. Sparks fly between Haitian newcomer Marcel Charles and the sexy, voluptuous Sikh Indian scholar Ajooni Patil in the campus library. When Jamaican beauty Jacqueline Vermont catches Marcel's roving eye, can Ajooni control her erupting jealousy ? Maryam Joseph is a successful Haitian-Canadian businesswoman whose conversion to Islam stuns her Catholic family. When Maryam falls for the edgy and openly lesbian, blonde and athletic (and proudly butch ) artist Dawn Jenkins, her carefully ordered life is turned upside down. Themes of faith, culture and love abound in this interracial anthology.
