Jhumpa Lahiri

Hi all

i have all 3 of Jhumpa Lahiri's novels and collections.. and i was wondering if i could find more indian-american authors that share stories.. about being indians in the western world - or at least english translations of hindu, bengali, or panjabi stories.

thanks all... i really love this stuff

Check out "Life of Pi." It's written by a Canadian-Indian. It's one of my favorite novels.
