No more and no less than the all Hispanic daughter of anyone or the Buddhist brother of anyone or the non-immigrant father of anyone!.

It's not the background, it's what you do with it!. Bharati Mukherjee does amazing things with such backgrounds, and John Cheever did amazing things with WASP suburbs!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Only if the book is autobiographical!. And even then, the mere fact of an interesting background isn't much of a hook!. There has to be something more involved - and that is the writing!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
