Love Comes Later submerges the reader in the world of Muslim culture via the country of Qatar. I enjoyed learning more about both the country and the culture associated with it. When one of the main characters goes to London and ends up rooming with an American girl who was born in India and raised in the Indian culture, the contrasts between the two are not as great as their similarities. The same holds true when Abdulla enters the life of both. No matter the culture, I believe we all yearn to find true and lasting love. The author artfully shows how despite culture clashes, we are all of the human family and desire the same things. Ms. Rajakumar has crafted a modern love story with romantic tendencies. However, the story shows we are capable of finding passion and love if that's what we truly desire. Through the family's patriarch, we learn the results of not following our passion.
