Zoom Cultural Exchange - Short Story Discussion with Meri and Eileen
Please join us for a discussion of assimilation, marriage, and belonging examined through the lens of Jhumpa Lahiri's much acclaimed short story, "The Third and Final Continent" (from her short story collection, The Interpreter of Maladies). It's about a Bengali man who arrives in Boston and must adjust to a new country and new marriage while trying to fit into a new and different culture. Please click on the address below for the story.
