“Good
Americans”, interesting name, isn’t it?
This
cutting edge short story collection by Tejas Desai gives every reader a very unconventional
approach to the contemporary American world which is overflowing with people who
are liars, racists and cheats.
America is also filled with people who are doing
their best in emotionally manipulating people and getting on their nerves..
All the stories jotted down by
the author have a great detailed research done and the way the stories are
penned shows it all.
All stories are different to each other in their own way
and they have a feel of their own. Stories starts from An Italian-American
racist receiving his retribution from a Hispanic teenager; a blonde runaway
from Florida being forced into prostitution on her road; a Dominican-American
professor being involved in the politics of the academic world; and much more.
A
very different novel as compared to the chicklit love stories of today’s time,
Good Americans does its best in solving its purpose. The author of the novel
has made it more interesting with the use of the perfect ingredients at the
perfect place. Good Americans is the first book in The Human Tragedy series.
Looking forward to more such books, I would like to rate this piece of work 5
out of 5.
