REVIEWS OF "The Inscrutable Americans" by Anurag Mathur 

"Anurag Mathur ... is the toast of India's capital ... (His) tale of a subcontinental bumpkin at sea in the American heartland has struck a chord with Indian intellectuals...." - International Herald Tribune 

"Anurag Mathur's book brings us face to face with the US from a delightfully new angle... A highly readable book, 'The Inscrutable Americans" is, like (its) protagonist, funny, thoughtful and astute in equal measure." - Business India 

"Leafing through Anurag Mathur's 'The Inscrutable Americans', (one) can see that this book must be a very popular read...." - The Telegraph 

"There is no self-contempt or post-colonial anguish in 'The Inscrutable Americans', instead there is a boisterous, if comical celebration of both India and America." - The Times of India 

"Through his disastrous English and pious judgements (his ears ringing with predictions of doom from mother and grandmother if he so much as looked at beef or girls), Gopal retains a gentle dignity and a startling shrewdness... In the process he arouses an exasperated affection from friends, colleagues, teachers and most of all the readers...." - Indian Express
