Immigrant, Montana

Amitava Kumar

One winter morning, a monkey stole into Mamaji's room. He climbed on the huge white bed and finding Mamaji's pistol brandished it - they say - at my cousin, born two months after me and still in her crib. No one moved. Then, turning the pistol around, the primate brain prompting the opposable thumb to grasp the trigger, the monkey blew his brains out.

Meet AK, an Indian 'immigrant' studying in New York where he embarks on a sequence of erotic relationships with women, politics, and literature. Immigrant, Montana is the story of his education. Ironic, provocative, satirical, and explosively stylish, Amitava Kumar's novel radically reinvents the bildungsroman, campus novel, and postcolonial narrative for a new generation - and introduces an unforgettable voice.
