Abazali be-Harvard eyaziwa ngokuba yi-chick-litty plagiarist sele ifikile kwi-Fifth Avenue.
Oogqirha baseNew Jersey UViswanathan Rajaraman kwaye UMary Sundaram , ogama intombazana eneminyaka ubudala kwikholeji Kaavya Viswanathan wabhala Njani u-Opal Mehta Wancanywa, Ufumene endle kwaye waBufumana uBomi , bahlawule $ 3.21 yezigidi indawo yokuhlala ephezulu e IGrand Madison e 225 yendlela yesihlanu , Uguquko olutsha lwe-condo emantla eSakhiwo seFlatiron.
Kodwa owesihlanu wenzeka njengendawo exolelayo. USteven Gaines wakhe wabhala ukuba u-Sotheby we -othe-fixer u-Al Taubman, umzekelo, wafumana uthando lommelwane xa ebuyela kwi-posh co-op yakhe esuka entolongweni.
Mhlawumbi abamelwane abakhulu abazukuyibamba le nto ukuba umntwana wabo ekuphela kwakhe uphakamise inqwaba yeepaseji (ezivela kuMegan McCafferty, uSalman Rushdie, IiDayari zeNkosazana nangaphezulu) kwinoveli yakhe malunga nentombazana yokwamkelwa eHarvard kwintombazana yaseJersey. Le noveli yakhunjulwa ngo-Epreli 2006.
Ngokwezicwangciso zomgangatho, eli ziko elitsha lixhasayo linendawo yokuhlala / kwigumbi lokutyela elinamamitha angama-37 ubude kunye namagumbi okulala amathathu, ke abadala baseHarvard baya kuba nendawo yabo kwigumbi. Kodwa akunakulindeleka ukuba isivumelwano sakhe sencwadi yamanani amathandathu-okanye ukhetho lwefilimu ye-Dreamworks-sincedise ekuxhaseni ukuthengwa kwezigidi zeedola ezi-3, kuthathelwa ingqalelo ukuba utata wakhe uyi-neurosurgeon. Usapho, indlu yalo yakudala yobukoloniyali eFranklin Lakes, N.J., inegaraji yeemoto ezintathu, khange ibuyise fowuni.
Kule ncwadi, ngabazali beedolophu zaseJersey ababhala uluhlu lwezinto ezenziweyo ezibizwa ngokuba yiOpal izakufika njani eHarvard kwaye izakufumana ubomi, kwaye nguTata owenza oonotsheluza behip-jargon.
Kubomi bokwenyani, kwihlobo ezimbini ezidlulileyo, aba bazali bafuna ukuphosa intombi yabo kwitheko leencwadi elibomvu. Kwaye ndivukile nje kwaye ndisekhona kwiipijama zam, umbhali uthembisile INew York Times , kwaye umama wam uya kubiza, kwaye uya kuthi, 'Kaavya, ngaba ukhetha iipinki ezipinki okanye ezimhlophe?'
