The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri

The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri

Ashoke Ganguli survived a train derailment in Bengal because a rescuer noticed the pages of a Gogol story moving in his hand. Years later, in Massachusetts, the letter from his grandmother naming his newborn son never arrives, and he writes Gogol on the hospital form.

The boy grows up hating the name, changes it at eighteen, and spends two decades trying to be someone whose parents' house is not embarrassing. Lahiri writes the immigrant marriage — Ashima learning a country she did not choose — with as much care as she gives the son, and gives neither of them an easy answer.

From the Pulitzer-winning author of Interpreter of Maladies, and one of the essential novels of the Bengali diaspora.
