Cabbages. . . The Turkish variety are prized for their enlarged leaf bud, thats where we put the heroin. . .
Theres a stash of heroin waiting to be imported, and no one seems sure what to do with it. . .
But Aylas a gardener, and she has a plan.
Offering a fresh and funny take on the machinery of the North London heroin trade, Keeping the House lifts the lid on a covert world thriving just beneath notice: not only in McDonalds queues and mens clubs, but in spotless living rooms and whispering kitchens.
Spanning three generations, this is the story of the women who keep their family – and their family business – afloat, juggling everything from police surveillance to trickier questions of community, belonging and love.
