The Whole Kahani (The Complete Story) is a collective of British fiction writers of South Asian origin. The group came together in 2011 to provide a rich, creative perspective that straddles cultures and boundaries, and reflects the contemporary world. They are unique in that they collaborate, workshop and publish collectively. The Whole Kahani includes fiction writers, poets and screenwriters with an array of awards and publications to their names individually. They have published three anthologies: Love Across a Broken Map (2016), May We Borrow Your Country (2019) and Tongues and Bellies (2021).
