Description
Whereabouts, the new novel from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jhumpa Lahiri, is a haunting portrait of a woman's journey through life. Written in Italian and translated by the author herself, this rare work of fiction brims with the impulse to cross barriers.
In this beautiful and lonely city, the woman moves through her world on her own, pausing to watch others, drink coffee, or take in the sights and sounds around her. As one season gives way to another, transformation awaits, and she must confront what has been lost and face what may lie ahead.
A dazzling evocation of a city and its inhabitants, Whereabouts is a testament to Lahiri's artistic achievement, as she grafts herself onto a new literary language with remarkable skill. This novel is a powerful exploration of the human experience, one that will resonate with readers.
