Opens your eyes to the struggles and triumphs of the South Asian American community. A bit preachy at times, but impactful overall.

Provides a much-needed perspective. While informative, I wish there were more personal stories, felt a bit disconnected at times.

Uncle Swami is an informative exploration of identity and belonging. It is slightly academic in tone and not for every reader. Worth considering.
