Nicole Kidman is so keen to star in a film adaptation of a novel about an English widow and a young African asylum seeker she is vying for rights to the book.

"The Other Hand," by London author Chris Cleave, sold just 3000 copies in hardback when published last year. But in the past two months, 100,000 copies have been sold in Britain alone.

Readers have caught on to the engaging story of Little Bee, a 14-year-old Nigerian girl who goes to the UK in search of a middle-class woman called Sarah.

Nicole Kidman was enthralled after reading the novel on a recent flight and is intent to feature as Sarah. I am not sure if she can secure the rights to the book as many film studios are keen too. I have purchased the book for a weekend reading though. :)
