About This Book
Navigating between the Indian traditions they've inherited and the
baffling new world, the characters in Jhumpa Lahiri's elegant, touching
stories seek love beyond the barriers of culture and generations. In "A
Temporary Matter," published in The New Yorker, a young Indian-American
couple faces the heartbreak of a stillborn birth while their Boston
neighborhood copes with a nightly blackout. In the title story, an
interpreter guides an American family through the India of their
ancestors and hears an astonishing confession. Lahiri writes with deft
cultural insight reminiscent of Anita Desai and a nuanced depth that
recalls Mavis Gallant. She is an important and powerful new voice.
