This novel by Anurag Mathur gives a hilarious account of the experiences of an Indian young man, Gopal, during his one year stay in America. It's outright comical and entertaining. There were many "Lol" and "Rofl" moments in the story. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and I'm sure you'll too.
I don't think I'll ever forget the first taste of side-splitting laugh that is to be continued throughout the book: "The strangest thing about America is that it is full of Americans. "
Initially, the intriguing title got me wondering whether it would have any offensive content. But to my relief I found that it demeans neither America nor India. As one reviewer (on the back cover) expressed, Inscrutable Americans is a celebration of both India and America.
