in college I had to read this book called The Immigrant and it was about this young man who was living in the US illegally as a child and constantly in fear of being deported and had to work in the fields picking strawberries and had a really hard time trying to go to school consistently and things of that sort and this was his life story which he really shouldn't use for his own books it's just so unacceptable
The immigrant (2008)
"Nina and Ananda, both frustrated with their separate lives, search for something that will complete them. When a marriage between them is proposed, Nina is uncertain: can she really give up her home in Delhi to build a new life in Canada with a husband she barely knows?" "The consequences of change are far greater than she could have imagined. From what she eats to what she wears, Nina's whole world is thrown into question. As certain truths unfold, she realizes that establishing a new life will take more than she thinks." "Manju Kapur describes Nina's struggle to define herself with great honesty, sensitivity, and intelligence. The Immigrant is an intimate exploration of marriage, what it costs to start again - and what we can never leave behind."--Jacket.
