"Five girls. Three generations. One great American love story. You Bring the Distant Near explores sisterhood, first loves, friendship, and the inheritance of culture--for better or worse. Ranee, worried that her children are losing their Indian culture; Sonia, wrapped up in a forbidden biracial love affair; Tara, seeking the limelight to hide her true self; Shanti, desperately trying to make peace in the family; Anna, fighting to preserve Bengal tigers and her Bengali identity--award-winning author Mitali Perkins weaves together a sweeping story of five women at once intimately relatable and yet entirely new."   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Aina Haina Public Library YA -- Fiction Perkins   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library YA -- Fiction Perkins BBYA Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library YA -- Fiction Perkins   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library YA -- Fiction Perkins   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library YA -- Fiction Perkins   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library YA -- Fiction Perkins   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library YA -- Fiction Perkins   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
