“I moved here when I was 20 to go to college. After I moved here, I became much more aware of the importance of the culture and literature to my life. Sometimes when you're immersed in something, you just don't notice it very much. Moving away makes you appreciate your culture. Living here, I've thought more and more about India, and what being Indian-American means to me. And it's made me incorporate things from Indian literature into my own writing.” WritingMeanMadeSometimesMovingCultureLiteratureMy OwnCollegeAppreciateIndiaImportanceMovedIndianAmerican IndianMoving AwayAppreciate You Author:Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
