Critics Review

‘Lahiri has an extraordinary voice’ Salman Rushdie ‘Jhumpa Lahiri is the kind of writer who makes you want to grab the next person you see and say “Read this!” She’s a dazzling storyteller with a distinctive voice, an eye for nuance, an ear for irony. She is one of the finest short story writers I’ve read.’ AMY TAN ‘Jhumpa Lahiri’s strong, subtle short story collection is a debut to relish.’ Guardian
