A coming-of-age story about Vikram, an Indian-American teenager uprooted from 1980s Wisconsin and sent back to India after a disastrously drunken weekend. Culture shock, loneliness, and unforgettable new friendships force him to rethink identity, family, and belonging — and to discover that India is his soul, but America is his heart.
