Missed translations : meeting the immigrant parents who raised me / Sopan Deb. - First edition. - xiv, 256 pages, : genealogical table ; 24 cm.
I'd like to say a few words about race relations -- White people have the best lunches -- I almost did not recognize you -- My son is a star! -- Sent from my iPad -- To them, he is a common man -- Do you wish you were closer? -- I might not be around -- Do you follow my points? -- That country was calling me -- My dearest son, I have no regret -- The lights of my life are not around me -- You've brought me everything -- For me, I didn't have a choice -- I am happy, yes and no -- There were stories I heard -- I couldn't even think, I was so lost -- Children of immigrants.
Deb's experiences as one of the few minorities covering the Trump campaign, and subsequently as a stand-up comedian, propelled him on a dramatic journey to India to see his father and bridge the emotional distance separating him from those whose DNA he shared.
