Bharati Mukherjee is an Indian woman who went to America during her school days and spent 2 years in Iowa. After that, she went back to Calcutta and married a man who was chosen for her. With her husband she moved to Canada where she found difficulties with society because of her cultural background.
After 14 years of living in Canada she decided to move to the United States and become an American citizen by her choice.
