Life in the Eyes of Thatha
By: Dr. Radha Krishna Rao Yarlagadda
A collection of autobiography and pieces of grandfatherly wisdom, Life in the Eyes of Thatha details Dr. Radha Krishna Rao Yarlagadda’s experiences in this country as a graduate student, an educator, a parent, a grandfather, a researcher, and someone who has gone through several illnesses and many adversities.
Born in 1938 in Andhra Pradesh, a southern state in India, Dr. Yarlagadda eventually came to the U.S achieving not only an excellent education, but the American Dream. Written to his grandchildren, present and future, Life In the Eyes of Thatha is a beautiful homage to the author’s own history and a love letter to America, the Land of Promise, where all dreams are possible.
