About The Book
Neeti is a driven and self-made woman who finds purpose and fulfilment in her work in
Mumbai. When she marries Mihir, the love of her life who plans to pursue a PhD in the US,
she is confronted with the biggest dilemma: Should she listen to her heart or her head?
The heart wins and Neeti moves to the US, leaving her career, family, and friends
behind to be with Mihir. But her real challenge begins when she finds herself on a dependent
visa, with no work life to speak of.
Anjuli Rajprasad’s lucid prose narrates this tale of a twenty-first-century woman
dealing with the stigma of being ‘dependent’ on a spouse and discovering her identity beyond
a professional one.
