Sobre este áudio

"If You See Me, Don't Say Hi bristles with unexpected meetings and reunions, recognitions and failed recognitions, passions and estrangements of all kinds. These stories have a sharp eye for the complexities of modern life, but Neel Patel writes with the wisdom and compassion of an old soul." (Celeste Ng, New York Times best-selling author of Little Fires Everywhere)

In 11 sharp, surprising stories, Neel Patel gives voice to our most deeply held stereotypes and then slowly undermines them. His characters, almost all of who are first-generation Indian Americans, subvert our expectations that they will sit quietly by. We meet two brothers caught in an elaborate web of envy and loathing; a young gay man who becomes involved with an older man whose secret he could never guess; three women who almost gleefully throw off the pleasant agreeability society asks of them; and, in the final pair of linked stories, a young couple struggling against the devastating force of community gossip.

If You See Me, Don't Say Hi examines the collisions of old world and new world, small town and big city, traditional beliefs (like arranged marriage) and modern rituals (like Facebook stalking). Ranging across the country, Patel’s stories - empathetic, provocative, twisting, and wryly funny - introduce a bold new literary voice, one that feels more timely than ever.

Resumo da Crítica

"In stories that are moving, thoughtful, entertaining, and discomfiting all at once, Neel Patel upends what we think the experience of Indians in America looks like. It’s about time." (Rumaan Alam, author of Rich and Pretty)

"Patel has a knack for depicting the gap between how characters experience their lives and how they are expected to be seen - and how those gaps can widen into life changing fractures. This is a perceptive, moving collection." (Publishers Weekly)
