"This novel sees America through the eyes of a visiting student from Kathmandu as he struggles to make a life in his new land. . . . Importantly, this story gives us insight into the immigrant experience and the difficulties and joys of adjusting to a new culture."

(Anthony Grooms, author of Trouble No More and Bombingham)

Deepak comes to America immediately mesmerized by the immensity of its abundance. After leaving Nepal to earn a graduate degree in the U.S., his plan is to make his fortune in the land of opportunity. He quickly learns America is more than he bargained for, especially his newfound "friends." He questions whether he can even survive, much less succeed, in this new country. The challenge seems even more insurmountable when he settles into his new residence and job, where situations occur that test his resilience and will. In the midst of his agony, he finds one thing that could possibly make the experience ultimately worthwhile. Will she leave or betray him like everyone else has?

HIGHLIGHTS OF THIS NOVEL

The story is weaved in romance, cultural tension, and dilemma between two worlds. The novel embarks on a journey that takes the reader along with the protagonist who cries, laughs, and daydreams. It is the growth of the narrator and the story is seamlessly woven into the protagonist's hardships and struggle in the land of opportunity. It is a beautiful story of appearance vs. reality. The novel pinches, pokes, and pushes to an entirely different world where the reader becomes enlightened along with the character. The characters of the novel are funny, bizarre, beautiful, weird, and fun filled.
