Publisher's Synopsis
"I like most of this novel. This novel shows some true to life accounts of how Rita, woman who grew up in India had to cope with being uprooted from India after getting married to live in America with her new husband where she has to deal with a drastic culture change, abusive in-laws, raising her children who were born in the States and eventually raising her children by herself. Early, on her journey she had to deal with this with almost no support from family, which was made worse because of her husband's beatings. Because of this, Rita is torn between the dictates of traditional Indian culture and society, the call of the flesh and desire to have a better life in the US in spite of having to observe traditional Indian customs and traditions. Rita shows a naivete still wanting to have her family intact even if the reality is she might one day end up dead from her husband's beatings. This novel also shows how much children growing up from a family that has domestic violence ends up being deeply affected even until the adult years. This Novel Predicts The Sentiments of women who seeks acceptance in society, hunger for love and respect both in professional and domestic life. One need to read this novel. This Novel can be good for TV serial both in Hollywood and Bollywood."
