I am a Bengali who grew outside of West Bengal, and in some sense the anxieties that the first chapter brought up, resonated with me, and atleast the future I am going to have. I'm not sure if I relate more with the father or the daughter, but in some sense Jhumpa's writing captures the overwhelming fragility in such relations.

Whenever I read Jhumpa, it feels so easy to read. Like the words and ideas just naturally follow from the way the story is written. Really, masterful usage of writing, very emotional, Love it.

The last story was the hardest to read. Aaaah it hurt everything that was there to hurt in me.

Jhumpa's writing has this ability to captivate but at the same time leave you wanting for more. Her ability to weave drama and tension into a normal story of a family makes it so much more amazing.

The second chapter resonated with me to some bigger level, because that's partly how my family worked too. Aaaah. The bong connection in the story makes me appreciate it so much more. I love this book, I can't wait to read more and talk about it. This book also conceptualises and attacks the concept of youth and eventual middle age very well, ofcourse I have no experience but I feel oldies would love to read it too.
