29 Nov / Stealing the Ambassador by Sameer Parekh [in AsianWeek]
An absolutely fabulous first novel about young Indian American named Rajiv Kothari, and his path to understanding his recently deceased father, his father’s view of life as an immigrant, and his own experience navigating two worlds. It’s all framed by an odd airport encounter between Rajiv and a recent student immigrant who happens to have Rajiv’s deceased father’s name.
