Unaccustomed earth/Jhumpa Lahiri.

I re-read this collection of short stories for a book club and it was just as good, or better, than on first reading. Like Alice Munro, one of my very favorite writers in any length fiction, Lahiri's short stories, or novellas, are a rich and complex as a well-written novel of much longer length. Her writing is exact and beautiful. 333 pp.
