The book follows the trail of a Punjabi boy, who after enjoying his student life to the fullest in India, moves to North America. Unlike a typical memoire, the author brings his real-life stories through intertwined poetry and prose with a sprinkle of humor and fictional tidbits. The first chapter, Bimbabli, intimately stitches his childhood imagery. The second chapter, Google Ton Pehlan (Prior to Google), reimagines how the pre-internet age led to stories that wouldn't have happened otherwise. The third chapter, Parvaas (Migration), takes the reader through various stages of a Punjabi immigrant living in the West. The fourth chapter, Baraf Ch Ugge Amaltas (Amaltas grown in the Snow) is about the children of first gen immigrants and their internal and external challenges. Chapter five, Kaviology (The science of Poetry) enumerates various colors and shades of poetry in the context of migration related themes. Chapter six, Greta Thunberg De Khaab (Dreams of Greta Thunberg) touches upon the side-effects of green revolution & economic growth on the environment back home through the eyes of a migrant. Chapter Seven, Tikkri Border, is a visualization of the recent Farmers' Agitation in a dream while sitting in the foreign land. The last chapter, Nago Aye Nago Jaasee, completes this journey with Covid ups & downs and metaphysical thoughts about life.
