It's here that five girls - Muslim, Christian and Hindu; gay and straight - forge a binding friendship. But when Heaven is threatened by government bulldozers, the girls must come together to save the home they've built from nothing. Sparkling with passion and humour, A People's History of Heaven is the story of these unforgettable young women and their determination, not only to survive, but to triumph in a city that would prefer to forget them.
