She is living with a cold and unfeeling stepmother and searching for answers. The small-town Minnesotans believe the family members are the "perfect immigrants." Nothing could be further from the truth. </p><p> </p><p>Haqq offers an honest and atypical perspective in her memoir Mamaji. She's not the usual Indian immigration success story. She doesn't attend an Ivy League college, have a Bollywood-inspired wedding or become a neurosurgeon. Instead, with humor and introspection, she shares how she and her siblings contend with a manipulative stepmother. Elisheba battles to salvage her father's love while the fast-fading memory of her mother lingers in the background. Despite her absence, Mamaji gives her children grit and a deep devotion for each other enabling them to flourish despite their home life. </p><p> </p><p>Mamaji is a story about a daughter longing to connect with her lost mother.
