I just listened to a good interview between Morning Edition's Steve Innskeep and writer Jhumpa Lahiri. It's part of their week-long series on what it means to become an American. It's sort of comforting (but surprising) to hear other people tell stories from their childhood that mirror mine.
I think I am going to have to pick up her book(s) and give it a look-see.

I particularly enjoyed learning how to correctly pronounce her name, after having seen it on her books for a long while. Such a fun name to say!
