Great decision.
The story sticks to author's narrative around Indian immigrant, nicely depicting the journey that a relationship undergoes subjected to an individual's decision, circumstances and time.
The book weaves through societal expectations, personal conviction and the fragility yet resilience of relationships. The perforating effect of words and actions through generations kept me intact till the end.

The book has two parts to it.
The first part presents a collection of short stories spiralling through the lives of Indian immigrants. Through simplicity of the narrative as well as the circumstances lived by the characters, I was able to relate to the complexities and hardships produced. However for me these stories were not very engaging.

Second part is engaging. Leafing through the pages to know the culmination of first love was enthralling.
