Dear Librarian,
Dear Librarian, Are you seeking a clever, entertaining multicultural novel with romantic elements for female readers age 18 and up? If so, please tell your patrons about my novel INVISIBLE LIVES, wherein they will meet Lakshmi Sen, a 27-year-old Seattle sari shop owner with a mystical ability to see into every heart but her own. Through the medium of fabric--exotic woven saris in silk and cotton--she helps customers realize their dreams.
But can she do for herself what she does for her customers? When an Indian movie star hires Lakshmi to plan a Bollywood-style wedding, Lakshmi finds herself falling for the actress’s bodyguard. Does her future happiness lie with her handsome Indian fiance or this sexy American? How will she recognize true love?
INVISIBLE LIVES explores cultural identity, the debt people owe to their parents, the courage to pursue one’s desires, and whether love can occur at first sight. My first novel, IMAGINARY MEN, was a Book Sense Notable Book; Booklist called it “charming” and “vivid.”
I would love to call into your book group. Go to www.anjalibanerjee.com for a reading group guide.
