Hello Gilbert,
I agree with you entirely. However, I am inclined to veer towards what is
the lived experience of South Asians in the Western countries they have
settled in?
I am delighted you have produced a novel. I will read it asap. Currently, I
need to work on two reviews of books by Goan authors and am pretty tied up
with other work as well.
Kind regards,
Cornel

Hi Mario, Cornell, and many others
Rather than clubbing each other on the plight of the downtrodden, perhaps
a more intellectual discussion is what Indians can contribute today to the
societies we live in.
A good basis to start that discussion may be "On Thin Ice".
Parts of the book can be read on line on the webpage (Link below).
Please feel free to share your thoughts / review on the book.
The novel where "East meets West" highlights the contributions of Indians
in the U.S..
The funniest-serious novel you'll ever read.
The story helps understand:
European and Asian ethnic groups.
Asian-Indians in America and in India.
The charm of Mumbai.
The golden past of New York State.
And enjoy the competitive sport of Curling.
ON THIN ICE by
