Jhumpa Lahiri, In My Words

Lucia Pasqualini

Life is full of wonderful surprises. I have been following Jhumpa Lahiri for years, having discovered her books when I lived in New York. A friend of mine gave me Interpreter of the Maladies as a present. Nevertheless I hadn’t known about her deep passion for the Italian language nor that she had spent three years in Italy learning Italian. The result of her stay in Rome was a book written in that language, In altre parole, a sincere ode to the Italian language, makes Lahiri an extraordinary ambassador of Italian abroad.
