Interpreter of Maladies is a collection of short stories that center around the experience of being an immigrant in the United States.
I don't typically like short stories and almost never read them of my own accord. I only picked this up because it won the Pulitzer and I'm reading them all. I feel pretty confident that I could read this woman's short stories exclusively for the rest of my life and be quite happy. Each story had distinct characters that she managed to fully develop within a very short amount of time. Some were funny, some where sad. Unfortunately, none of them were pornographic.
I highly recommend this book and will be reading more from her.
