The South Pacific tale projected a visible picture of a mother-daughter relationship amongst the Tahitian working classes.

		<description><![CDATA[The Queen of Dreams authored by best-selling novelist Chitra Divakaruni, is tinged with a pattern of sadness, roped in from a culture where teardrops mixed with customs and hardships, shadow ordinary family life in India. This packaged history is more than likely to follow a family&#8217;s emigration, no matter where their suitcases end up. It [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=susanabraham2007.wordpress.com&amp;blog=947970&amp;post=27&amp;subd=susanabraham2007&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How will the world classify multicultural fiction in the future? It is my guess that an author&#8217;s nationality will always dictate his/her heritage for a novel, as a serious focus on identity.
