Love and betrayal, sex and greed spin out of control in this playful yet unflinching dissection of a visa marriage gone bad. Cultures clash and dreams collide with reality on a stage of smoke and mirrors where nothing is what it seems. Conscience is a Cheshire cat, fading in and out of random scenes of ecstasy and despair in breezy prose that flows through constantly shifting moods with casual, sure-footed poise.
