A collection of stories by Jumpa Lahiri that says stories on Indian American people settled abroad and the way they deal with their cultural differences. The eight stories depict various relationships of father son, mother daughter, sisters, brothers and so on.
The first story named as the book title, has three generations who come to stay together and express their opinion with limited words. The silence is loud in the house and you slowly sink into the aura.
All stories are touching. Love, cheating, hatred, jealously, care .every emotion in all the stories are close to real. The readers just go with the flow. Characters are simple and the language is easy.
Amazon quotes "Unaccustomed Earth exquisitely renders the most intricate workings of the heart and mind."
