Reviews: Meghan (USA: NJ) (2007/08/23):
Great book. Jhumpa Lahiri is definitely an author to read.



Carly (USA: NV) (2007/11/21):
She is a fabulous writer. Very engaging.



Yaya Marzuki (Indonesia) (2008/06/05):
The story is too long, in Indonesia we call it "bertele-tele/dragging."

In fact, I hate Gogol the main character here. I think he's very unappreciative toward his parents by changing his name..just because he hates the sound of it. However, my heart goes to his parents, Ashima and Ashoke. I can't put it into words, they seem so hopelessly innocent in the foreign country.

Sorry to say I feel like wanting to slap Gogol's wife's face for her infedility. Hate her!
