Ray, born in what is now Bangladesh, is a transplant himself. His family was uprooted due to political upheaval and wound up in Kolkata. In real life, he splits his time between India and the United States. Ray clearly has invested a whole lifetime in this work, having lived through political upheaval in his own cross-cultural journey. His careful research shows on every page as it were, and there is special focus on the social and cultural forces at work during the periods of time he describes. Ray depicts periods of poverty and struggle in Ireland, India and America with special, painstaking care.
