-
Tanuja Desai Hidier's fantastically acclaimed cross-cultural debut comes to PUSH!
Dimple Lala doesn't know what to think.
Her parents are from India, and she's spent her whole life resisting their traditions.
Then suddenly she gets to high school and everything Indian is trendy.
To make matters worse, her parents arrange for her to meet a "suitable boy."
Of course it doesn't go well -- until Dimple goes to a club and finds him spinning a magical web .
Suddenly the suitable boy is suitable because of his sheer unsuitability.
Complications ensue.
This is a funny, thoughtful story about finding your heart, finding your culture, and finding your place in America.
