Editorial Review Product Description In the tradition of the Joy Luck Club, Bharati Mukherjee has written a remarkable novel that is both the portrait of a traditional Brahmin Indian family and a contemporary American story of a woman who has in many ways broken with tradition but still remains tied to her native country. Mukherjee follows the diverging paths taken by three extraordinary Calcutta-born sisters as they come of age in a changing world. Moving effortlessly between generations, she weaves together fascinating stories of the sisters' ancestors, childhood memories, and dramatic scenes from India's history. Customer Reviews (36)

This book will not let you down.
Look Below the Surface
A Luminous Gem Of A Novel
Virtual history: being there But there is more: the novel is so brilliantly themed, the premise so unique, that this reader was guided through a journey of staggering originality. Beigh's lover/companion, Venn, is developing a computer program that would allow an individual to experience a few moments in the past, set to a specific time frame, with pertinent information entered into the program. Beigh provides the structural facts, creating the opportunity to ......? Is it really even possible? This is not "time-travel" as usually written, but Virtual participation in real time.Mukerjee actually ties the threads of history together, from one side of the world to the other, suggesting infinite permutations. Not your traditional historical novel, Mukerjee fashions an ending worthy of any mystery-adventure devotee. Experiencing this story is an adventure in itself.

Half of Book lacks DIRECTION and INTEREST!!!! If Mukherjee had written this book entirely, readers' interest may not have wandered as far.Bharati's interpretation of their journey is nostalgic and whimsical at the same time, telling of her return to India after a fourteen-year absence.She often visites the idea of what if; for example, what if she'd stayed behind in India and married an Indian?What if she'd led the traditional Indian life?

Editorial Review Product Description Debby's search for her birth parents takes her to SanFrancisco, where she lifts a new name off a vanity license plate andbegins a new life as Devi Dee. Along with her old identity, Debby/Devisheds her old conventions, becoming a "Tenderloin prowler, allallure and strength and zero innocence" as she lives out of hercar in Haight Ashbury, befriends the crazy, the strung-out, and theparanoid who populate its streets, and begins her hunt for the womanwho gave her life--a search that will lead Devi into an apocalypticconfrontation with a most unexpected demon. In Leave It to MeBharati Mukherjee has created a hip, violent, and darkly funny look atwhat it means to be an American at the end of the 20th century. Customer Reviews (19)

Editorial Review Product Description The first naturalized citizen to win the National Book Critics Circle Award, Bharati Mukherjee (b. 1940), born into a rigid hierarchy as a Bengali Brahmin and raised in the elite of Calcutta society, joined the American masses by choice. This journey from a privileged yet circumscribed life to one of free will and risk supplied the experiences she has turned into literature. From her first interview, originally published over three decades ago in her native tongue Bengali in the Calcutta journal Desh and appearing here for the first time in English, to an in-depth interview in 2007 granted specifically for this collection, this volume provides a candid look at the woman who has been called the grande dame of diasporic Indian literature. |

YAWN
Examination of another culture Aside from this, I liked learning about Indian culture.I knownothing about the lifestyles of about a half billion people.Jasmine iseasier reading, once you pick up on the succession of name changes for themain character, but I'd recommend either book if you want to get acquaintedwith some other-than-Western writers.
Disappointing Maybe I'm just too dense, but I didn't get "it".I couldn't identify, or even empathize witht heheroine.I couldn't appreciate the significance of what the things thathappened to the heroine.I got the feeling that the lovely prose wassupposed to set the stage, let us feel the strangeness and familiarity ofthe India our heroine was returning to -- but I missed it.It got close,but in the end, I was just confused and disappointed.I felt like theentire book was a build up for the "real" story... ...
