Unaccustomed Earth by Jhumpa Lahiri



This is another book by my new favorite author. It's another collection of short stories. Simple, but rich. Excellent character development. And, I've written this before in a previous blog post about The Interpreter of Maladies - the writing seems so effortless. It's really wonderful.

I LOVE the Namesake. I finished it on a plane at wept profusely. I had to bury my face in the side of the plan so that the flight attendants wouldn't get worried. Yikes!

Hi Notorious! =D

Thanks for reading my blog! Yes, while finishing the Namesake and for awhile after, I had tears streaming down my face.
