Book review No dolce vita in author Jhumpa Lahiri’s Roman Stories, themed on ideas of othering and being an outsider

The Hindu  

For a book about a city known for its Colosseum and ancient fountains, Jhumpa Lahiri’s latest collection of shorts, Roman Stories, is coloured by new beginnings. I found Lahiri’s deeply-embedded sense of liminality present throughout this book — the houses are on the outskirts of the city, women return to Rome to relive old memories, the men sit on the …

Anusua Mukherjee reviews Jhumpa Lahiri’s ‘Whereabouts’

The Hindu  

Jhumpa Lahiri can be credited with having birthed the diaspora novel. The pain and liberation of the transformative process is brought out there in a quote from Ovid’s Metamorphosis, where the nymph Daphne, pursued by Apollo, changes into a laurel tree, and Apollo, placing his hand on its trunk, can feel “the breast still trembling under the new bark”. Lahiri, …

’Whereabouts’ by Jhumpa Lahiri: Where she finds herself

Live Mint  

Towards the end of Jhumpa Lahiri’s beautiful new novel, Whereabouts, the unnamed narrator, living in an unnamed city in Italy, finds herself in a peculiar double bind. “I’m me and someone else,” she realises, “that I’m leaving and also staying.” Doubleness is a metaphor that runs through the letter and spirit of Whereabouts. In a sense, therefore, Whereabouts has a …

Literary translators have come up with plenty of analogies for their trade. Before the book’s 2016 release in English, Lahiri passed the translation to Ann Goldstein, who handled the English editions of Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan quartet, fearful that translating her own work would contaminate her Italian. Former Times critic Michiko Kakutani, reviewing Lahiri’s Pulitzer Prize-winning debut, Interpreter of Maladies, called …
