From the publisher:

This elegant novel captures the immigrant experience for one Indian-American family with humor and heart. Told in alternating voices across three generations, You Bring the Distant Near explores sisterhood, first loves, friendship, and the inheritance of culture–for better or worse.

From a grandmother worried that her children are losing their Indian identity to a daughter wrapped up in a forbidden biracial love affair to a social-activist granddaughter, award-winning author Mitali Perkins weaves together the threads of a family growing into an American identity.
