>An IMMIGRANT coming from a POOR IMMIGRANT COUNTRY immigrates to the USA. As an IMMIGRANT they go through a serious of hardships such as living in a slum, having an accent, racism, and straight talking old ladies from the motheland. Despite this, with their folksy IMMIGRANT wisdom and HARD WORK and GRIT they rise up to the status of Middle American Bourgeois if it's a comedy or Drug Kingpin if it's a tragedy. I guess the American Dream isn't dead.

Dont forget the part where Bad Guy McAnnoyowitz gives him a hard time but comes to respect him and kneel before him by the end of the novel. Also he was mean to a woman probably or espoused some other value the author felt the audience wouldnt like.

WASP US was a cancer and responsible for the great satan we have today. White ethnic enclaves were the best part of this country and if some anglo nerds got their due in the process, so much the better.
