Industry reviews
"Workaday first novel....of interest only for its exotic setting."
Kirkus Reviews  (11/15/2002)

"The writing is emotionally restrained and doesn't call attention to itself. There are no lyrical bursts of exuberance over the country's beauty or the torments of love. At points the novel is excessively terse; when three words would have sufficed, Upadhyay uses two. In spite of that it is gripping, because you like the characters so much and wish them well....Unlike that of many writers from the Indian subcontinent who live here and write about there, there is, mercifully, nothing evocative about Upadhyay's prose."
New York Times Book Review - Suketu Mehta (01/12/2003)
