She breathes unpredictable life into the page, and the reader finishes each story reseduced, wishing he could spend a whole novel with its characters. There is nothing accidental about her success; her plots are as elegantly constructed as a fine proof in mathematics.

http://www.counterculture.co.uk/book-review/the-namesake.html

Extractions: Houghton Mifflin How does a writer follow up a Pulitzer Prize winning debut? Jhumpa Lahiri , who at the age of 32 was awarded the coveted literary prize for her masterful story collection, Interpreter of Maladies , once again marvels readers with smooth and elegant prose in her novel, The Namesake The Namesake is the story of the Ganguli family; Bengali immigrant parents and their American-born children. Ashima and Ashoke Ganguli, who were united through an arranged marriage, have difficulty assimilating to American customs and culture, while their children cannot entirely relate to their Indian heritage. The story begins when Ashima gives birth to their firstborn, a son, during the summer of 1968 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Unaware of hospital policy, the Gangulis must come up with a name for their baby before being released from the hospital. In their culture, an infant grows into a name, which is decided upon by a grandparent or another respected senior in the family; in this case, Ashima's elderly and ailing grandmother in Calcutta. They decide on a temporary name, Gogol. This nickname - neither Indian nor American, but Russian - is the name of a writer who had an enormous impact on Ashoke pursuing a career and a new life in America. As time goes on, the nickname sticks, the letter from Ashima's grandmother never arrives, and Gogol is fated with this peculiar name. We follow our main character, Gogol Ganguli, through his school years, his adult relationships with women, his marriage, and his rejection and eventual acceptance of his tradition-soaked family. When he becomes 18 and is entering college, he legally changes his name. Will changing his name transform him into someone else; will it change where he came from and where he's headed? Gogol's struggle with his identity drives this novel and makes him a symbol for those who may not feel entirely American, but are still unable to make a true connection with their heritage.

Extractions: Send this review to a friend Read previous BookPage interviews Family values Lahiri probes the immigrant identity in her first novel INTERVIEW BY ALDEN MUDGE Much has happened in the life of Jhumpa Lahiri since she was awarded the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for her first book, Interpreter of Maladies , an exquisite collection of short stories whose central characters are Indian immigrants to America. In early 2001, Lahiri married Alberto Vourvoulias Bush, a journalist with Time magazine, in a traditional Bengali wedding ceremony in Kolkata (or Calcutta). A little more than a year later, the couple had their first child, a son. And shortly after that, Lahiri received a Guggenheim fellowship and completed work on her fine first novel, The Namesake , which is being released this month. So maybe it's no surprise that Lahiri says winning the Pulitzer has had no real impact on her. "It doesn't affect what I do," she says during a call to her home in New York. "It doesn't really affect how I work." She says she continues to maintain her long-time practice of writing in the mornings. "Having recently had a child has made things a little more challenging," she says. "But things are working out pretty well and my life has moved smoothly into this new phase of motherhood." In conversation, Lahiri is poised, friendly, self-deprecating and slightly reserved. "I'm not a very good close reader of my own work," she demurs when asked to explain the meaning of an incident near the end of

http://www.cityarts.net/n.lahiri.html

Extractions: Jhumpa Lahiri received the Pulitzer Prize in 2000 for Interpreter of Maladies , her debut story collection that explores issues of love and identity among immigrants and cultural transplants. With a compelling, universal fluency, Lahiri portrays the practical and emotional adversities of her diverse characters in elegant and direct prose. Whether describing hardships of a lonely Indian wife adapting to life in United States or illuminating the secret pain of a young couple as they discuss their betrayals during a series of electrical blackouts, Lahiri's bittersweet stories avoid sentimentality without abandoning compassion. Born in London, Lahiri moved to Rhode Island as a young child with her Bengali parents. Although they have lived in the United States for more than thirty years, Lahiri observes that her parents retain "a sense of emotional exile" and Lahiri herself grew up with "conflicting expectationsto be Indian by Indians and American by Americans." Lahiri's ability to convey the oldest cultural conflicts in the most immediate fashion, and to achieve the voices of many different characters are among the unique qualities that have captured the attention of a wide audience.

Extractions: By Amy Reiter In her 2000 Pulitzer Prize-winning collection of short stories, "Interpreter of Maladies," Lahiri introduced us to people who left behind family and friends and the familiar heat and bustle of India to build a new life in America a cold, bleak land of strangers and new customs. Lahiri's sweet, sometimes deep, sometimes quirky first novel, "The Namesake," picks up on these beloved themes and then expands on them, following the Indian-American immigrant experience through to the next generation as she tracks the members of the Ganguli family.

Henry and Best American Short Stories collections. Lahiri, 32, spoke from her home on the fringes of the East Village and Gramercy Park in Manhattan. You were born in London and raised in Rhode Island, and your parents are from Calcutta. Yet your stories are not preoccupied with issues of identity. Does identity interest you as a writer, or is it a cumbersome expectation to be "multicultural"? Two of your stories that are set in India, "A Real Durwan" and "The Treatment of Bibi Haldar," are not portraits of upper-middle-class life, but of servants and marginal figures. Why did you make that choice? Which story was the most difficult to write and why? Does being a second-generation American play a role in your aspiring to be a writer?

http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/ae/books/reviews/2319391

Extractions: Houghton Mifflin, $24; 291 pp. As with her deservedly admired Pulitzer Prize-winning short-story collection Interpreter of Maladies, there's no expeditious pacing or hyperbolic subplot in this book, Jhumpa Lahiri's gracefully understated first novel. Instead, what we get is her trademark economy of expression, supple acoustics and somber atmospherics and without a hint of anything recycled. Spanning three decades and two continents, The Namesake 's story line is episodic, nearly picaresque, a literary form whose expansiveness and fluidity assert a sense of individual autonomy and mobility. The story limns the unforgiving and often repressive claims of memory and family tradition in unresolved discord with the equally insistent immigrant claims of establishing a new and meaningful identity in the New World.

Extractions: 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. top of the page We hope the following questions, together with the "Conversation with Jhumpa Lahiri," will stimulate discussion for reading groups and, for every reader, provide a deeper understanding of Interpreter of Maladies What kinds of marriage are presented in the stories? One reviewer has written that Lahiri's "subject is not love's failure, ... but the opportunity that an artful spouse (like an artful writer) can make of failure ... " Do you agree or disagree with that assessment?

http://www.bookreporter.com/reviews/039592720X.asp

Extractions: Receiving the Pulitzer Prize, according to first-time author Jhumpa Lahiri, was a complete surprise. However, to anyone who has read these meticulously crafted short stories, it's no surprise at all. IINTERPRETER OF MALADIES, lovely from the cover on in, is redolent of India itself. Teeming with all manner of humanity, it is in turn frank and subtle, bold and understated. There is an immediacy to Lahiri's style that bridges any gulfs between the more structured traditions of Indian culture and the brashness of American life. This debut collection opens with "A Temporary Matter," a sharply poignant tale in which the sheltering darkness of a Boston electrical outage encourages newfound intimacy in a grieving couple. Going from the intensely personal to the political, the next story deals with a young girl's perceptions of far-off Pakistan as its civil war bombards her home via television in "When Mr. Pirzada Came to Dine." "What I remember during those twelve days of the war was that my father no longer asked me to watch the news with them, and that Mr. Pirzada stopped bringing me candy, and that my mother refused to serve anything other than boiled eggs with rice for dinner. I remember some nights helping my mother spread a sheet and blankets on the couch so that Mr. Pirzada could sleep there, and high-pitched voices hollering in the middle of the night when my parents called our relatives in Calcutta to learn more details about the situation. Most of all I remember the three of them operating during that time as if they were a single person, sharing a single meal, a single body, a single silence, and a single fear."

I love Jhumpha Lahiri (a lot), she is one of my favorite writers, one day I hope to meet her and thank her personally. She is the one who first motivated me to write short stories! I identify with her because she and I are both Indian, both North American, and I'm just a few years younger than her. So thank you for posting this interview, which before posting I had already read at least three or four times. I think of Jhumpa Lahiri and smile. One of my favorites.
