The Immigrant Wife

Meer over het boek

Set against the backdrop of 1960s India, the story follows Shanti Bamzai, a young woman determined to pursue her dreams instead of conforming to traditional expectations. As she navigates college, a self-chosen marriage, and motherhood, she grapples with the clash between old-world values and modern aspirations. A move to America offers new possibilities, yet she still feels constrained by her upbringing. Ultimately, Shanti must summon the strength to redefine her identity and embrace the independent life she has always longed for.
