YOU PEOPLE
By Nikita Lalwani
The London pizzeria in Nikita Lalwani’s third novel feels comfortingly familiar, with its house wine and tiramisù, watercolor scenes and lacy fans. Yet “You People” quickly moves into less cozy places behind the kitchen door. Shan and Nia are employees who have ended up, separately, at Pizzeria Vesuvio by 2003, both grappling with loss and forcing themselves to begin again. The restaurant and its owner, the enigmatic and generous Tuli, become the fulcrum of their new lives, and of this ambitious if flawed novel.
