Query: Dull, unimaginative

I found the book engaging in the beginning, but as the painfully constructed story line started to unravel, i was left wondering if i had gotten hold of a torture device used in interrogations. There was certainly nothing original about the story line ( Desi immigrants are a done to death theme), the characters were soul less and unconvincing, the passages were painfully long.It seemed like the author had started walking in a corn field and mid way forgot where he was and what he should do next.A HUGE disappointment
