ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
In Jhumpa Lahiri's novel, The Namesake, the story follows Gogol Ganguli, an American-born son of Indian immigrants, and his lifelong journey to understand his unique cultural identity. The narrative explores themes of family, tradition, love, and the challenges of finding oneself in a world caught between two cultures. We see Gogol navigate the complexities of belonging to both Bengali traditions and American individualism, as he grapples with his unusual name, romantic relationships, and evolving perspectives on his heritage. The novel offers a moving portrayal of the immigrant experience, the search for belonging, and the poignant quest for self-discovery.
