Synopsis
"Nina and Ananda, both frustrated with their separate lives, search for something that will complete them. When a marriage between them is proposed, Nina is uncertain: can she really give up her home in Delhi to build a new life in Canada with a husband she barely knows?" "The consequences of change are far greater than she could have imagined. From what she eats to what she wears, Nina's whole world is thrown into question. As certain truths unfold, she realizes that establishing a new life will take more than she thinks." "Manju Kapur describes Nina's struggle to define herself with great honesty, sensitivity, and intelligence. The Immigrant is an intimate exploration of marriage, what it costs to start again - and what we can never leave behind."--Jacket.
