9 reviews for Uncle Swami

  1. Arnab Das

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

  2. Manav Gautam

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

  3. Sanskriti Agarwal

    An insightful read, offering a glimpse into South Asian American life. Some parts felt a bit dense, but overall, a valuable perspective.

  4. Karan Khurana

    Excellent book! Prashad captures the nuances of the community beautifully. It’s well-written and engaging, could not put down

  5. Vinayak Sharma

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

  6. Chirayu Shrimall

    Important for understanding the post-/ experience. It dragged in places, making it a bit of a slow read. Ultimately worthwhile.

  7. Sohel Mubarak Sheikh

    Prashad sheds light on important issues. The book is informative but sometimes dry. Worth reading to understand the community’s challenges.

  8. Sourav Dey

    A powerful and moving portrayal of the South Asian American experience! It is eye-opening and thought-provoking. Highly recommend!

  9. Abhishek Gautam

    Fantastic. A detailed and well-written study that should be in every library and classroom. A must read for all Americans.
