Description
The stories in this collection centre around new immigrants ? spirited people who are prepared to leave their home and hearth to travel to distant lands to pursue their dreams of a better life. But often times there?s a reality check , and they are left to grapple with unexpected challenges of cultural shock, paucity of jobs, lack of Canadian work experience, absence of affordable daycare, and non-recognition of their educational credentials. Though the accounts are fictional they show the determination of new immigrants to survive on alien soil.
Advance Praise
"Pratap Reddy is an absolutely terrific writer, both human and humane, and he writes about the immigrant experience with an unpretentious intelligence that captures both the anguish and wild humour of it.”
- Elisabeth Harvor
