Born Confused by Tanuja Desai Hidier

To the best of my knowledge Born Confused was the first book with a US female teen desi heroine that was one of the reasons my publisher wanted it, and it is certainly one of the reasons I wrote it – it was, and is, important to me that a young South Asian American have a voice, and that it be heard and read by people of all backgrounds and ages. "I hadn't read any books I could recall with a South Asian American teen protagonist. Hidier wrote Born Confused in 2000/2001, drawing "largely from autobiography." First published in the United Kingdom on October 1, 2002, it was later released in the United States on July 1, 2003.
