It’s a golden rule, ‘Only Wheat Not White’ in Eila’s world but everything she plans for, goes topsy-turvy. It’s a tale of complicated lives, where Eila not only finds friendship in the unlikeliest place but, she becomes a match fixer for the White Babe and the Wheat dude at work. Yes, our Eila cannot keep her mouth shut for long. She is mugged, saved by the American brother-in-law and is kissed out of the blue by the ogre. The book has family drama, love, friendship, sensuality and an anti-climax.
What is romance without humor and one-liners? Drab and boorish, you’ll argue and rightly so! Varsha Dixit effortless humor flits in the narration with utmost ease which breaks the monotony but never the flow. Varsha takes you in this world where you can pop in and out for a break through the funniest lines but you can’t stay away for long.
Or, this one which is one of my favorite that makes humor flawless and effortless in execution:
“Then, she stopped and turned around, ‘Food for thought! What’s the similarity between getting laid and laid off!” You need intelligence to steer this line to perfection.
In a nutshell, Only Wheat Not White has everything that can be beautifully adapted on the silver screen where the whole Indian family chip in at the restaurant owned by Bret and it’s narrated with an Indian feel how a community can pull the extraordinary to save the day. Mrs. Das is one such character, who mutters religious verses that echo our own Indian raga to attain Moksha. The book may have been set in US with White not Grey Love but the soul is Indian.

premises of an accepted partner for a Hindu.
Here, the family was torn apart not only by the marriage, but also by the Indian daughter, who entered the relationship with a Caucasian man, unprepared for its consequence. While her family blames the husband for the non-existent relationship after the marriage, we get to know that, their daughter is the one mainly responsible.
As the middle-daughter, Eila, takes a temporary job in New York, to try to restore the relationship between her sister and her parents, she discovers that the reality is very far from what she thought. Her sister is very different from the person she once knew. Also she gains a very different perspective about her brother in-law.
As Eila, despite her own misgivings, falls in love with a blue-eyed Caucasian, we get the sense that she now has the tools to navigate successfully through the relationship and to gain her family acceptance.
At the end of the book, I could picture the two couples, and the two kids, travelling to India together to meet the parents. Introducing the 'real' son-in-law and the son-in-law to be. Let them discover two good men, under their white skins.
It's a 3.5 stars for me.

Everytime I read Varsha Dixit I am in awe how she blends the humour so realistically to the story telling. It’s not just the story but also the humour and fun which adds the charm to the book.
The very concept of accepting a White into the very conservative Indian family, a husband and wife struggling to live with a burden of the same, one of them struggling hard to find the roots; she had to leave behind to be with her love… just not the right way and one poor lady trying hard to keep this Mr White out of her heart because he is not Wheat. Also Mr White is struggling hard to understand the very concept.
This romance with a blend of humour holds you all the way along.
Detailed Book Review in Book Reviews by Reshma Ranjan

for a while like a trance. Its been a while I read a book of this genre and it cast a spell. If not all atleast some characters definitely did. Eila is a very beautiful name. Well sketched characters. Subtle humour. I read the book over 5 days but it held my interest and I took to it the first chance I got everytime!
This is the first time I have read an Indian author and Varsha definitely has an international appeal. Articulate and beautifully written. Romance and love will never be history.
Some words still lingering in my mind 'Ogre', 'Eila's hair clip' (the villian!) , Bretts shirt sleeve folded upto his forearm, Eila's liquid gold dress, hooded eyes and finally I was happy that blue was my favourite color!!
Interesting, crisp and short story told with a lot of love! Read it!
