Více o knize
Stealing the Ambassador showcases an astonishing new talent that captures the clashing dynamics of family and cultures with a power that will remind readers of Zadie Smith's <i>White Teeth</i> and Jhumpa Lahiri's Pulitzer Prize-winning <i>Interpreter of Maladies.</i> Twenty-three-year-old Rajiv Kothari is caught between two formidable men: a father who believed success and freedom could be found only in America and a grandfather who fought to guarantee such ideals in India, their homeland. As the stories of each generation unfold, <i>Stealing the Ambassador</i> illuminates the interplay between the forces of history and family ties. A beautifully rendered depiction of the immigrant experience, <i>Stealing the Ambassador</i> is also an unforgettable portrait of the tortured yet loving relationships between fathers and sons.
