"The stories exploring transgressions and dissolution of boundaries are richly imagined and immaculately crafted. Adiga lends a powerful voice to the challenges and dreams of his Nepali characters, both in Nepal and in their adopted homeland of America. Diversity Quota is a strikingly original collection, a terrific book."-Samrat Upadhyay, author of Arresting God in Kathmandu "Portrays a colorful cast of Nepalis both at home and in the US-immigrants, students, couples, professor, father, son, man, woman, and servant-with remarkable empathy and brutal honesty. Adiga's protagonists confront their deepest fears and personal struggles: be it class, sex, poverty, misogyny, or male anxiety. Wry, unsentimental, yet tender, their lived experiences will move you and take your breath away."-Yang Huang, author of My Good Son
