- Abstract
This article offers a look at the use of Parsis, emigration and immigration in "Swimming Lessons and Other Stories From Firozsha Baag," by Rohinton Mistry. According to the author, the Parsis view immigrants as ethnic and economic destruction; in addition, he argues, the white North Americans in Mistry's short stories regard Parsis and immigrants from India as the racial perversion of their society.
