This is a collection of short stories (novelettes) by the breathtaking author of Namesake. Lahiri writes about the experiences of educated professional Indian immigrants to the US and their adjustment to their new life. But this is only the backdrop to her amazing stories and insight into the human mind and heart. Every sentence is unexpected, interesting, and smoothly woven into the narrative.

Bharati Mukherjee (Desirable Daughters)
Aravind Adiga (White Tiger)
A Suitable Boy (Vikram Seth)
