- The Golden Jubilee A family and their significant others gather one summer weekend in a California home to mark the golden jubilee wedding anniversary of a Bengali-American couple, Dev and Ruma. Intended to be a celebration through conversation and music, it becomes as much a time of bonds lost and recovered, of confessions and self-discovery, of acceptances and rejections, and of new decisions.
- The narrative is unveiled in a succession of first person tales told separately by Deb, Ruma, their daughters Anji and Diya, and their visitor from India, Debs much loved widowed sister Nanda.
- The story talks about how Indians in America, become completely Americanised as they tend to forget their Indian roots, especially the new generation.
- Other themes include family politics, love and arranged marriages, loneliness, death. A major issue raised in the novel is the impact of homosexuality, especially how it is viewed by different people.
