The Mango Season

Meer over het boek

"Every young Indian leaving the homeland for the United States is given the following orders by their parents. Don't eat any cow (It's still sacred!); don't go out too much; save (and save, and save) your money; and, most important, do not marry a foreigner. Priya Rao left India when she was twenty to study in the U.S., and she's never been back. Now, seven years later, she's out of excuses. She has to return and give her family the news. She's engaged to Nick Collins, a kind, loving American man. It's going to break their hearts."
