I loved this book, which is an interesting treatment of the immigrant experience. You have a judge who left India and returned, people who left and were disappointed with what they found elsewhere and people who want nothing more than to leave. A fascinating exploration of a post-colonial society with well-developed, complex characters. Not a beach read, for sure, but a thoughtful and thought-provoking novel, well worth reading.
