Vassanji, Anita Rau Badami, and Shawna Singh Baldwin all have Indian heritage.<br /><br />Non-Fiction:<br /><br />There's Ghost Train to the Eastern Star, by Paul Theroux, and the book that it was a follow-up to. Also Holy Cow, by Sarah Macdonald. I can't remember any others offhand, but I might see some at work tonight and I'll try to remember to pass them on.<br /><br />(How bad is it that I've memorized 2/3 of our stock?)Anassahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11554524219883438465noreply@blogger.com
