Read the paragraph from "A Four-Hundred Year-Old Woman" and answer the question. I have found my way to the United States after many transit stops. The unglimpsed phantom Faridpur and the all too real Manhattan have merged as “desh.” I am an American. I am an American writer, in the American mainstream, trying to extend it. This is a vitally important statement for me – I am not an Indian writer, not an expatriate. I am an immigrant; my investment is in the American reality, not the Indian. Which best summarizes this paragraph? After traveling to nearly everywhere but her native country, Mukherjee came to America to be a writer. She now considers herself American, not Indian. Although born in India, Mukherjee has immigrated to America where she is a writer. She writes as an American about people like her, whose stories are part of what makes America the country that it is. Mukherjee is a writer who is an immigrant, not an immigrant who is a writer. As such, she has joined mainstream America. Determined to be more than an expatriate, Mukherjee came to America with the intention of writing about India, but instead finds herself writing about America.
