Tamara Bhalla's Reading Together, Reading Apart:
Identity, Belonging, and South Asian American Community • Discovering
authenticity and identity in a book club. Often thought of as a solitary
activity, the practice of reading can in fact encode the complex

represents a particularly integral facet of identity formation--and
expresses of a sense of belonging--within the South Asian diaspora in
the United States.
