Jonnie, a gifted engineer from Chennai, arrives in the United States chasing the promise of possibility. From New York’s chaos to Chicago’s sharp corporate skyline, he moves fast — promotions, respect, success. But his true journey is not shaped in boardrooms. It is shaped by the women who walk beside him.
Abby, the warm-hearted nurse who first opens her world to him, teaches Jonnie compassion, courage, and the beauty of beginnings.
Keethu, rooted in culture and conviction, challenges him to confront the parts of himself he left behind.
And Charlie, steady, intuitive, and wise, shows him that balance, acceptance, and partnership are the real anchors of a meaningful life.
Through victories and losses, through choices that shape and test him, Jonnie discovers that ambition alone cannot complete a man — but love, responsibility, and self-awareness can guide him home.
Chicago Bluzz is a powerful story of reinvention, love across cultures, and the long arc of emotional maturity.
A modern immigrant odyssey that asks:
Success can take you far.
But do you know the way back to yourself?

Mohan K Thangaraju
Mohan K. Thangaraju is a novelist known for his fearless exploration of the human soul — where desire, guilt, power, and redemption collide. His fiction captures the intensity of modern life with emotional honesty and cinematic depth, moving effortlessly from Bangalore’s boardrooms to the solitude of prisons and the quiet sanctuaries of spiritual awakening.
Through his acclaimed works — Fool’s Paradise, One Midnight Summer Madness, Chicago Bluzz, and When the Moon Burned White — Thangaraju has built a distinctive literary voice that blends psychological realism with moral philosophy. His protagonists are flawed, complex, and deeply human, reflecting the conflict between ambition and conscience, love and consequence.
Written in richly detailed prose and driven by emotional truth, Mohan’s novels examine the cost of our choices and the fragile line between illusion and reality. His writing invites readers into worlds of passion, downfall, and renewal — stories that remind us that even in darkness, redemption remains possible.
