A Catholic Marries a Hindu

Two people -- Paul an American and Latika an Indian -- fall in love and get married in this true East meets-West story entitled A Catholic Marries a Hindu. From language and attitudes to cuisine and hobbies and from college experiences and career choices to social structure and work settings this short matter-of-fact read sheds light on the many cultural differences between the United States and India as seen through Pauls perspective -- as seen through American eyes. The true story culminates in the weddings (both Catholic and Hindu) of Latika and Paul -- tuxedos Mass and a wedding cake on day one are replaced by saris Sanskrit chants and coconuts on day two. Educational and informative A Catholic Marries a Hindu shows us that differences at times can unite.
