The story centers on the author, who worked as a programmer at a small software company. Upon noticing a promising career opportunity that entailed relocating to the U.S., he seized it. Upon being selected, he embarked on a journey out of India. Throughout his time in the U.S., he recounts his experiences, sharing both amusing confessions and observations of aspects that were prevalent in his time but have since become uncommon in the present generation. While adjusting to life in a new country presented its challenges, he remained appreciative of the experiences he acquired and the people who played a role in shaping his journey.
 
Confessions of an Indian Immigrant by Aithal is a captivating memoir that takes readers on a journey from India to the vast opportunities of the United States. Through a series of vividly narrated anecdotes, Aithal offers a heartfelt account of his experiences as an immigrant navigating the complexities of a new culture while also grappling with the joys and challenges of family life. One of the most compelling aspects of Aithal's narrative is his candid portrayal of the immigrant experience. Readers are given an intimate glimpse into the trials and triumphs of building a new life in a foreign land.
 
I admire one thing about Aithal. Most men in the tech niche or career-oriented sphere often lack time for family. However, here is a man who, despite being fully immersed in the tech world, makes every effort to be present for his family. Another person I admire is his dear wife. Women frequently make significant sacrifices to ensure their homes receive the best care, and for that, I appreciate her and every other woman out there doing their utmost.
 
There is absolutely nothing I didn’t like about the book. The book is a memoir that will resonate with readers of all backgrounds. The incorporation of coding language techniques to articulate his confessions is a distinctive feature that I find noteworthy. It’s quite amusing. As such, I am confident that this book will be immensely enjoyable for a wide range of readers.
 
The editing style of this intriguing memoir is top-notch. I rate the book 5 out of 5 stars. While reading this memoir, I felt as though my father was personally recounting the story of his life to me. The memoir was incredibly authentic, evoking a sense of realism that transcended the pages. It felt as if Aithal himself was sitting beside me, directly sharing his experiences in the U.S. and offering insights into life in India, spanning decades prior to this present generation. From this book, it is evident that Aithal possesses a humorous and playful side. I recommend this book to immigrants, fans of memoirs, anyone seeking inspiration, and cultural enthusiasts.

While memoirs aren’t my favorite form of literature, they do have something to add. From them we get to see the opinions of others .I’m glad they’re around for those that do enjoy them.
