Summary:
A
novel
about a young new
immigrant
to the U.S. in search of love: across dividing lines between cultures, between sexes, and between the particular desires of one man and the women he comes to love. The young man is Kailash, from India. His new American friends call him Kalashnikov, AK-47, AK. He takes it all in his stride: he wants to fit in--and more than that, to shine. In the narrative of his years at a university in New York AK describes the joys and disappointments of his
immigrant
experience; the unfamiliar political and social textures of campus life; the indelible influence of a charismatic professor--also an
immigrant
, his personal history as dramatic as AK's is decidedly not; the very different natures of the women he loved; and of himself in and out of love with each of them. Telling his own story, AK is both meditative and the embodiment of the enthusiasm of youth in all its idealism and chaotic desires.
