- Summary:
- "Experience the poverty of backstreet Bombay (now Mumbai) and the strong family bonds that make a young boy's life bearable. Learn about arranged marriages and Eastern religion, and how a father's words can inspire great achievement. See America through the wide-eyed wonder of a young man experiencing, for the first time, things most westerners take for granted, such as a spring mattress, a hot shower, and fast food restaurants. The simple, engaging prose of this memoir puts the reader in the middle of each vibrant scene, feeling, touching, and hoping as the characters face life's challenges."--provided from Amazon.com.
