Books to add to the Bibliography

My good friend from uni, whom I call Akuma for reasons I can never remember, has just recommended a book to me by Katy Gardner called "Songs from the River's Edge" which someone else has also mentioned recently so I guess it's fate. He is Bengali too and we actually grew up in Luton so we have some common ground and he's read more widely than me.

Whilst browsing through Amazon, I also noticed another book by Katy Gardner called:
"Age, Narrative and Migration: The Life Course and Life Histories of Bengali Elders in London" (Hardcover).

I wonder if she has a website. I may need to write a letter asking for
a) permission to use one or two passages from the books
b) advice on her research methods
c) recommended reading.

I will go now and learn more of this fascinating person.
