MARRYING ANITA

Book ID/图书代码： 03540008B19960

English Summary/英文概要： You are a single woman in your thirties, fed up with the singles scene. You are tired of singles dinner parties, and exhausted by phone calls, e-profiles, and forced dinner conversation. You fear you will never marry. What do you do?
Anita Jain, a New York-based Indian-American journalist, is just such a woman. Even her parents despair of her and have logged her details on to an Indian dating internet site. For years she has trusted the Western way of finding a husband, but maybe there’s something in arranged marriages after all. It certainly can’t get any worse. So she’s travelling to India in search of a perfect husband.
Marrying Anita is a refreshingly honest look at the modern search for a mate set against the backdrop of a rapidly modernizing New India. Will she find a suitable man? If so, will he please her nosy parents, aunts, uncles and cousins? Is the new urban Indian culture all that different from New York? And is any of this dating worth the effort?

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 想像你是一個三十出頭的單身女郎。 你對於單身貴族的生活開始感到煩厭，尤其是不斷的電話邀約、網路交友、以及參加單身貴族晚餐派對不得以的寒喧。 你開始害怕你可能永遠結不了婚。這時你該怎麼辦？
愛妮塔 ‧加恩，一個住在紐約的印度裔記者，就是這樣的一個單身女郎。她的父母也因為替她擔心嫁不出去而幫她在印度的一個網路交友站登入她的個人資料。 許多年來愛妮塔一直很相信她能夠以西方的自由戀愛方式找到她的真命天子，不過現在她慢慢覺得相親也許不是個太壞的主意。 所以愛妮塔決定飛去印度尋找她心目中的理想伴侶。
【愛妮塔要出嫁】從一個全新的角度來看身在迅速地現代化的新印度單身貴族是如何尋找他們的伴侶。她是否能夠找到一個適合當她老公的人？ 如果找到的話，那是否只將是取樂她的父母、伯母、伯父和表兄弟姊妹？新世代的印度文化跟紐約的都市文化真的有很不一樣嗎？ 這麼多的相親及約會值得嗎？
