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.

the past always catches up
评分很喜欢坐着的白描。虽然平淡,但是真实无比。
评分"The man who gave you his name, from the man who gave you your name."
评分20150504-20150613。21.1小时。小说特别跳跃和较多心理细节描写。说的虽然是发生在美国印度移民故事,但当今中国大量脱离故乡到城市发展打工青年及其子女相信也有许多相同的融入排异的感悟。小说关于父亲母亲的经历其实更为出彩。
评分看了电影,再来看书,还是很喜欢,情节和人物塑造都更丰富立体
