Description
Beginning in America, and spilling back over memories and generations to India, Unaccustomed Earth explores the heart of family life and the immigrant experience. Eight luminous stories - longer and richer than any Jhumpa Lahiri has yet written - take us from America to Europe, India and Thailand as they follow new lives forged in the wake of loss.

Reviews
-
'Lahiri's enormous gifts as a storyteller are on full display ... gorgeous'
-
'Probably the most influential writer of fiction in America'
-
'Contains some of the best, most beautiful fiction written this decade - the kind that will be read 50 years from now'
-
'It's difficult to think of a contemporary writer who gives her characters so much dignity ... Fiction of matchless restraint, yet also of rich, complex lives and credible characters'
