Erica has been equally traumatized by the events of 9/11, though in a different way and longs for her dead boyfriend, Chris. He now must face prejudice and discrimination based on his physical appearance as a routine way of life. On his flight back to New York, Changez realizes that the world has changed forever for him. An emotional response defined by sheer pleasure.
Changez is working in Manila and is struck by the intense emotional response to the sight of the collapsing World Trade Center towers.
Though life is good, he cannot help but notice a definite sense of alienation and loneliness coursing through Erica. When he gets back to New York, he works for Samson and spends times with Erica. The interview goes well and just before starting his career with Underwood, Changez goes on holiday to Greece where he meets Erica, a Princeton grad and great beauty. The greatest lesson that he gained from Princeton was how to become indoctrinated into the ideology of the American dream.īy the time he becomes a senior, Changez snags an interview with Underwood Samson, a company whose job is to determine the valuation of companies. Nevertheless, Changez was forced to secretly take employment doing a number of different jobs in order to support himself and his family. Americans, he discovered, are immediately taken with the exotic. Inside the café, the Stranger is subjected to a tale by Changez of the time that he spent in America, specifically the time he attended Princeton University where he utilized his Pakistani background to the ultimate positive effect. Changez tells the Stranger that he looks American and he would like to take him to a nearby café.
There is something within the inquiry that is an unsettling mixture of being overly polite and yet also strangely threatening. A young fellow named Changez goes up to a Stranger on the street and inquires if he may be of any assistance.
