Description

Gogol Ganguli, named after a Russian author by his Bengali father, navigates the complexities of his dual heritage as he grows up in America. From childhood to adulthood, he grapples with the expectations of his immigrant parents and the search for his own identity, caught between two cultures. Lahiri masterfully explores themes of family, belonging, and the profound impact of names, as Gogol endeavors to forge a life that honors his past while embracing his future.
