Amreekandesi - A disastrous Read

 I got an insight of this book from the author’s twitter handle. Being a great follow on twitter, his sense of humor is obviously judgmental. Flawless is the word for his presence of mind and tricks to inculcate simple everyday matters and parts n parcels of life into a laughter factory. There is no comprehension about the comedy and drama that the author is able to exhibit even into minute issues.

A very next door comprehension of Indian household and their reactions to American Dreams has been portrayed with all puns intended.  The story tickles our funny bones with the incidents that we all witness somewhere in our daily life. The relative association between our lives and the plot that the author has aimed at, gives us a feel good about the story.

The story has no surprise, it is a predictable plot and everything is known. The influence of getting in college sex and tongue wagging at white skin woman anatomy is all over. The protagonists were so much in a hurry to get into the college life in the US that getting a VISA and managing fund for US education looked easier that getting girls in the college. Tons and tons of spelling mistakes, grammar has no control anywhere. In the initial pages author is confused with Arora-ji and Goyal-ji. Editorial mistakes are remarkably visible and for a publisher like Random House, this is surprising that they even printed this manuscript full of mistakes. The plot has no twist, no climax, no suspense just a day to day life of any Indian who runs away from the country and then waits to come back for good.

I had great expectations from this book, but on the whole, it is an utter waste of time. I hope, this book does not go out in Amazon and publicize more on the hopelessness portrayed by the author about Indians abroad. I must finally conclude by saying that this is a story about Indians running away from the country, may be 10-15 years back. It is no more the scenario and is a bad featuring of the Indian follows.
