An arranged marriage and an immigration from India to Canada; this is a tale of isolation and longing. It chronicles the assimilation and adjustment of moving from one culture to another, and the intimate insecurities of marital life. I found it sympathetic to the anxieties and tensions of the newly-wed couple, with some welcome light-hearted moments. A good read to take on holiday - but I wouldn't recommend that you take it on honeymoon!
