[Lahiri] announces herself as a wonderfully distinctive new voice. Indeed, Ms. Lahiri's prose is so eloquent and assured that the reader easily forgets the 'Interpreter of Maladies' is a young writer's first book...Ms. Lahiri chronicles her characters' lives with both objectivity and compassion while charting the emotional temperature of their lives with tactile precision. She is a writer of uncommon elegance and poise, and with 'Interpreter of Maldies' she has made a precocious debut., In Lahiri's sympathetic tales, the pang of disappointment turns into a sudden hunger to know more...Lahiri's achievement is something like Twinkle's. 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. To use the word Sanjeev eventually applies to Twinkle, Lahiri is 'wow.', Lahiri's touch in these nine tales is delicate, but her observations remain damningly accurate, and her bittersweet stories are unhampered by nostalgia..., "[Lahiri] announces herself as a wonderfully distinctive new voice.

  • Engrossing collection of nine stories revealing cultural contrast coloring universal humanity

    Lahiri's first book, Pulitzer Prize winner. Nine stories mostly born of the cultural paths of Bengali families coming to America in the latter half of the twentieth century. Beauty and sadness. I love collections of short stories and this one is up there with Salinger's Nine Stories and Vonnegut's Welcome to the Monkey House.

  • Great read.

    It is a beautifully written group of short stories that give insight to a culture I was less familiar with, but feeling I relate to very much - being somewhere that doesn't feel like home.
