For the Shah parents, who came to America twenty years earlier with little more than an education and their new marriage, this move represents the culmination of years of hard work and dreaming. For their children, born and raised in America, success is not so simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the most part, these differences among the five members of the Shah family are minor irritants, arguments between parents and children, older and younger siblings. But one Saturday night, the twelve-year-old son is arrested. The fallout from that event will shake each family member's perception of themselves as individuals, as community members, as Americans, and will lead each to consider: how do we define success? At what cost comes ambition? And what is our role and responsibility in the cultural mosaic of modern America?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor readers of \u003cem\u003eThe Vanishing Half\u003c\/em\u003e by Brit Bennett and \u003cem\u003eSuch a Fun Age\u003c\/em\u003e by Kiley Reid, \u003cem\u003eA Great Country \u003c\/em\u003eexplores themes of immigration, generational conflict, social class and privilege as it reconsiders the myth of the model minority and questions the price of the American dream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 8.1 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 04, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44378900824166,"sku":"9780063324350","price":26.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/rULCbOsopJ9780063324350.webp?v=1768912642","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/a-great-country-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
