What is Gold Diggers: A Novel (Random House Large Print) about?

A brilliant Indian-American magical realist coming of age story and the debut of a major talent. Spanning two continents, two coasts and four epochs, Gold Diggers expertly balances social satire and magical realism in a classic striver story that skewers the model minority narrative, asking what a community must do to achieve the American dream.

This blockbuster novel both entertains and levels a critique of what Americans of color must do to make their way. A floundering second-generation teenager growing up in the Bush-era Atlanta suburbs, Neil Narayan is authentic, funny and smart. He just doesn't share the same drive as everyone around him. His perfect older sister is headed to Duke. His parents' expectations for him are just as high.
