There is both fear and respect between Bengalis and other Indians about America. That America is a ‘dream place’ is evident in the affirmative responses of the average Bengali young woman. But smart thinking citizens of this country see America in different ways. The author simply paints the economic, political and social situation of America in his forty years of experience. This book is actually is a call to break the illusion of the starry-eyed Bengali.
