I liked this book! It captures the dislocation of both grief and being out of place culturally (I thought of Sophia Copola's film “Lost in Translation”). This book realistically deals with grief, identity, family, displacement, and depicts the traveler lifestyle–long-term tourism in cheap-to-live/spiritually-rich places by a tribe of wanderers, and is ultimately hopeful. A spoiler: the Sikh-Canadian who finds a Jesus ashram was a really interesting idea. A quibble: I wish the main viewpoint character, Timothy, had had the last word in the novel; it would have felt like a better bookmark.
