Sharply observed and moving short stories about people who are trying to make a life for themselves in a new place, people unsettled from home and trying to find their place in a new country or a new way of life. The stories arise from the writer's experience of many years as a brown man in a predominantly white world, an encounter that often causes fundamental, tectonic shifts in character and outlook. The characters in these stories survive--they live and laugh and grieve and remember--always in between: suspended between two continents, two cultures, two different lives. This is a major collection from a writer to watch.
