Encore - Jhumpa Lahiri

This is an encore presentation of a program first broadcast in 2023. In 2000, Jhumpa Lahiri’ s debut short story collection, The Interpreter of Maladies , won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the Hemingway Foundation/PEN Award. Lahiri has gone on to write other critically acclaimed books, including The Namesake , Unaccustomed Earth , and The Lowland . Her collection Roman Stories centers around Rome, not as a setting, but as a protagonist. Translated from Italian, the stories capture Rome as both a metropolis and a monument, multi-faceted and metaphysical, suspended between past and future – and prove that Lahiri is now master of form in her adopted language. On October 13, 2023, Jhumpa Lahiri came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco for an onstage conversation with filmmaker Peter Stein.
