By grappling with novels, recipes, travelogues, pop culture, and his own background, Naben Ruthnum depicts how the distinctive taste of curry has often become maladroit shorthand for brown identity. With the sardonic wit of Gita Mehta's Karma Cola and the refined, obsessive palette of Bill Buford's Heat, Ruthnum sinks his teeth into the story of how the beloved flavour calcified into an aesthetic genre that limits the imaginations of writers, readers, and eaters. Following in the footsteps of Salman Rushdie's Imaginary Homelands, Curry cracks open anew the staid narrative of an authentically Indian diasporic experience."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a East Indian diaspora. 650 0 $a East Indians $x Ethnic identity. 650 0 $a East Indians $x Race identity. 650 0 $a East Indians in literature. 650 0 $a East Indian diaspora in literature. 650 0 $a Ethnicity in literature. 650 0 $a Race in literature. 650 0 $a Curry powder. 650 0 $a Ethnicity. 650 0 $a Group identity. 776 1 $a Ruthnum, Naben. $t Curry. $d Toronto, Ontario : Coach House Books, 2017. $k Exploded views $k Exploded views $w (CaOONL)20179049569 830 0 $a Exploded views. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20201103015645.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5AA9106CF79311E8BA923B1497128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
