I loved this in-depth look at the challenges of living in two cultures. The stort begins with a young Bengali couple that moves to the United States, and their difficulties in adjusting to life away from the families and familiar surroundings. They raise two children, and the story goes on to focus on the life of the oldest child, their son Gogol. It's a rare and beautifully written story, worth passing around to your friends when you finish it.
