Summary: In this novel written in free verse, Nima doesn't feel understood. By her mother, who grew up far away in a different land. By her suburban town, which makes her feel too much like an outsider. And most recently, by her childhood friend. As the ground is pulled out from under her, Nima must grapple with the phantom of a life not chosen and she might have to fight for it with a fierceness she never knew she had.

On the heels of an arranged wedding, Ashoke and Ashima Ganguli settle in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Ashoke does his best to adapt while his wife pines for home. When their son, Gogol, is born, the task of naming him betrays their hope of respecting old ways in a new world. And we watch as Gogol stumbles along the first-generation path, strewn with conflicting loyalties.
