Book Review of Interpreter of Maladies

Interpreter of Maladies
reviewed on + 60 more book reviews


a collection of short stories relaying the indian-american immigrant experience, with a bengali slant. i dislike the fact that she tends to stereotype the indian-american immigrant as a depressed woman yearning to return to her homeland, doing her best to reject american ways. lahiri has a knack for pointing out the little details that make you think.
