FROM COMEDIAN AND STAR OF TASKMASTER, FATIHA EL-GHORRI, COMES AN EMPOWERING AND HILARIOUS TALE OF FAMILY AND IDENTITY!

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Hackney-born Fatiha is the break-out star of Taskmaster series nineteen and an award-winning stand-up comedian. Her sharp, witty observations challenge stereotypes with humour rooted in her experiences as a British Muslim hijabi woman, offering a fresh and fearless voice. She has performed at the Royal Albert Hall, at the London Palladium alongside Lenny Henry for Comic Relief, on Live at the Apollo, The Russell Howard Hour and Comedy Central Live. Fatiha plays Aysha in BAFTA-winning Mr Bigstuff for Sky, and she wrote and starred in her own BBC short, Donkey. The Perks of my Hijab is Fatiha's debut novel.
