@Kusum Rohra – I believe yes, you would still be able to enjoy this book. And to top it, you will get a peek into the US way of life too, which I think is an added advantage considering you haven’t visited the place.

@Dilip – The book deserved it

Kusum, let me answer that with a “yes”. OR that was my attempt: to try to write this even for folks who had never been to the US. Of course my readers need to tell me how well I succeeded in that. Yes, there are some references that perhaps you would not catch. But overall, I was trying to speak of some larger themes that anyone might relate to. And at least a few people who have not been there have read it and have told me they found things of interest in it.

So please do read it and I’d love to hear what you think.

Thank you Dhimant for a generous and thoughtful review of the book.

Would a person who has never visited uncle sam be able to relate to or enjoy this book?

I was hesitant to pick up the book, but I guess I will, now.
