Jhumpa Lahiri - My inspiration


Nilanjana Sudeshna Lahiri ( Jhumpa Lahiri )

Years ago, this one photograph introduced me to the world of Pulitzer and writing. Time flew by, but this single picture lingered in my memory. I never ever thought in the wildest of my dreams that I could write. But I used to read then voraciously. The above appeared on the cover of Competition Success Review. But I took years to read her books. And now I am a huge fan of hers. I have read all of her works except the ' Lowland' which I will finish soon.

  3. My brother told me about her. He recommended 'Interpreter of Maladies'. I found the book in the library and became her fan.
