'Stimulating, elegant, distinctive and thought-provoking' The
Sunday TimesFrom the internationally bestselling, Pulitzer
Prize-winning author of Interpreter of Maladies comes an
exquisitely crafted work of fiction. In these short stories Jhumpa
Lahiri sets her gaze on the eternally beautiful city of Rome,
illuminating the frailties of the human condition and dissecting
lives lived on the margins. A man recalls a summer party that
awakens an alternative version of himself.A couple haunted by a
tragic loss return to seek consolation. An outsider family is
pushed out of the block in which they hoped to settle. A set of
steps in a Roman neighbourhood connects the daily lives of the
city’s myriad inhabitants.This is an evocative fresco of Rome, the
most alluring character of all: contradictory, in constant
transformation and a home to those who know they can’t fully belong
but choose it anyway. Rich with Lahiri’s signature gifts, Roman
Stories is a masterful work from one of the finest writers of our
time. Translated from the Italian by Jhumpa Lahiri and Todd
Portnowitz
