A review by geeth
The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri

3.0

In a way this book was everything I expected it to be. A typical NRI family drama. But it was also less loaded with clichés than most of the other books of this genre. Also despite the title and blurb, the book is less occupied with the lead guy's name than I feared. A fear, I admit, had me reluctant to pick up this book for long.
