"Interpreter of Maladies" by author Jumpha Lahri
I'm person who like to read a lot and one novel called" Interpreter of Maladies" by author Jumpha Lahri captured my attention, and the story goes like this.When someone feels lonely they usually feel empty and unimportant.Many people experience these feelings once they arrive to a new country. In the novel Interpreter of Maladies wee see the description of how a entertain person is dealing with loneliness.In the short story "Real Durwan"the character Boori Ma is trying to adopt to a new life as a refuge and examples how she deals with her loneliness.She is dealing with her loneliness through her stories of her past life and her present life as durwan.Boori Ma is a sixty four year women and homeless.She is claiming that she used to be very rich and important person. Instead, her present life where she is stair sweeper and durwan.Boori Ma doesn't have any family or friends, she is a refugee in a new country. The only person who pays attention to her is Mrs.Dalal who is one of the tenants who lives in the building.She is a person that Boori Ma complains to about her sleeping in dirty sheets and how insects are biting her.Boori Ma needs someone to talk to acknowledge her as a person and her is telling her story how important she was because, that is the way of dealing with loneliness through the memories of her life fulfilled with importance and attention. Which she had lost and become homeless person. In our society many people today are experiencing loneliness. Many immigrants are experiencing loneliness when they arrive at a new country or are refugees like Boori Ma.People usually deal with those emotions by trying to keep their traditions alive.Anyway i could write about this novel forever and i think you gays who ever read this blog maybe should read this book it is great.I gave just little intro.
