A coming of age memoir of growing up as a Hijabi torn between two cultures - by British Sudanese comedian on the up, Ola Labib

'Growing up as the only Black, hijab-wearing girl in a white seaside town, with strict African Muslim parents, I was stuck between a world I didn't feel part of and one I wasn't allowed to fully embrace. I was raised to follow the rules, be the good daughter, be a top-achieving pharmacist and finally marry an eligible bachelor. But life had other plans - like falling for a rapper, sneaking into stand-up comedy, and finding myself on stage at the O2. This is the story of how I found my voice, learned to live for myself, and discover that even when love and tradition clash, there's still room to laugh, grow, and belong.'©2027 Ola Labib (P)2026 Little, Brown Book Group Limited
