He has just published his first book “The Exotic Rissole” which explores growing up in Australia from his Bangladeshi background. Former Premier of NSW launched the book in Sydney last week.

Here is an extract published from well known broadcaster Wendy Harmer’s new website where she profiles one of the stories of the parents of Tanveer and their marriage in and around the Bangladeshi independence war.

Finally, Tanveer will be coming to Canberra next week to do a book event and then Melbourne the following day. He would be thrilled if there is strong support from the local Bangladeshi community.
