Bharati Mukherjee was an Indian-born Canadian/American writer who explored the "internal culture clashes of her immigrant characters" (The New York Times, 2017).
"The Middleman draws us into the centre of a cultural fusion glowing with the energy and exuberance of a society remaking itself. Passionate, comic, violent and ultimately tender, these stories portray recent immigrants in all their richness and variety, reflected in American eyes equally varied with fear, love, suspicion or pure astonishment. …” (Toronto Metropolitan University)
