Jhumpa Lahiri reads and discusses The Namesake. Lahiri brings to her first novel the remarkable powers of emotion and insight that illuminated The Interpreter of Maladies, her Pulitzer Prize-winning story collection. Here she enriches her signature themes: the immigrant experience, the clash of cultures, the conflicts of assimilation, and the tangled relationships between generations.
