Balli Kaur Jaswal is a Singaporean novelist, having family roots in Punjab.[1] Her first novel Inheritance won the Sydney Morning Herald's Best Young Australian Novelist Award in 2014, and was adapted for a film presented at the 2017 Singapore International Festival of the Arts.[2] Her second novel Sugarbread was a finalist for the 2015 inaugural Epigram Books Fiction Prize.[3] Her third novel, Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows was released in 2017, and garnered her a wider international following, driven in part by being picked as a selection for Reese Witherspoon's Hello Sunshine online book club.[4][5] Movie rights for Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows have been sold to Scott Free Productions and Film4.[6] In 2019, the Business Times described Jaswal as "the most internationally well-known Singapore novelist after Crazy Rich Asians’ Kevin Kwan."[5]
