SHORTLISTED FOR THE 1999 BOOKER PRIZE Uma, the plain, spinster
daughter of a close-knit Indian family, is trapped at home,
smothered by her overbearing parents and their traditions, unlike
her ambitious younger sister Aruna, who brings off a 'good'
marriage, and brother Arun, the disappointing son and heir who is
studying in America. Across the world in Massachusetts, life with
the Patton family is bewildering for Arun in the alien culture of
freedom, freezers and paradoxically self-denying self-indulgence.
