The author, now a novelist and writer residing in New York, grew up in the Silicon Valley when the computer industry was gearing up. Returning to visit his parents, he finds that "Architecture aside, the neighborhood is unrecognizable. The p;ale-faced aerospace engineers are long gone, replaced by recent immigrants from Iran, Hong Kong, India, Taiwan, Russia, Israel, and who knows where else, all drawn here by the smell of money and the promise of a bright future."
Most of the book is about family problems and I found it depressing.
No index so I deducted one star from my rating.
