Jhumpa Lahiri's debut story collection, Interpreter of Maladies, took the literary world by storm when it won the Pulitzer Prize in 2000. Fans who flocked to her stories will be captivated by her best-selling first novel, now in paperback for the first time. The Namesake is a finely wrought, deeply moving family drama that illuminates this acclaimed author's signature themes: the immigrant experience, the clash of cultures, the tangled ties between generations.
The Namesake takes the Ganguli family from their tradition-bound life in Calcutta through their fraught transformation into Americans. On the heels of an arranged wedding, Ashoke and Ashima Ganguli settle in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Ashoke does his best to adapt while his wife pines for home. When their son, Gogol, is born, the task of naming him betrays their hope of respecting old ways in a new world. And we watch as Gogol stumbles along the first-generation path, strewn with conflicting loyalties, comic detours, and wrenching love affairs.
With empathy and penetrating insight, Lahiri explores the expectations bestowed on us by our parents and the means by which we come to define who we are.

用戶評價
so vividly brilliant and heartbreakingly relatable
评分the past always catches up
评分wat we read in english class,worth to ponder.
评分看瞭電影，再來看書，還是很喜歡，情節和人物塑造都更豐富立體
评分20150504-20150613。21.1小時。小說特彆跳躍和較多心理細節描寫。說的雖然是發生在美國印度移民故事，但當今中國大量脫離故鄉到城市發展打工青年及其子女相信也有許多相同的融入排異的感悟。小說關於父親母親的經曆其實更為齣彩。
