An outsider's experience !

My apology for not going through this newly released book 'The Lowland ' by Jhumpa Lahiri. Her growing up with at  least two names of Calcutta (Vivekananda Road & Tollygunge)  might arose some amount of curiosity among old Calcuttans. Especially when the author claims to be an outsider-though having an existing family tree here.It will be interesting to find out how she educates herself -trying to trace back the mindset of a 'certain period.'
