Title: I thought it offered terrific insight. A good read.
Product review: Having attended college with Mr. Mathur (I hate to say how many years ago), I was so happy to come across this book about the plight of one foreign student in our midst. He gave wonderful, witty insights into the mind of a young man just trying to stay afloat amid the madness of early 70's American culture. To say he's a wit is an understatement. Mathur has managed to guide us through the angst of embarrassment with a guffaw at his character's naivete and no little admiration for his courage.I bought the book thinking I knew what the author was going to say. I was surprised at my own naivete in believing I could guess what was happening with the foreign student population in those days.I only wish I could contact Anurag so that I could tell him how wonderful I think the book is, and how pleased I am that he has written such a funny, awful, touching account of this young man's experience in the U.S.
