  • Displaced Passions - The New York Review of Books: In Namesake, Lahiri showed how it was young, stoic male students who arrived first. As the men went for their advanced degrees in fields like engineering and microbiology and stayed on to take jobs, young women from India flew over to accompany them, sometimes following through on an arranged marriage. Once here, in the early days, the wives had little besides frugal homemaking to occupy the endless hours they spent alone. They suffered terribly at first from loneliness, and from the devastating absence of anything they could recognize from their youth. Their journey must have been a mind-bender, an adventure the likes of which the children will never know?and, because of the greater cultural distance back then, a trauma, beyond the power of words to describe, whose fallout in the children' s lives both parents and children have trouble grasping. In many a case, their hearts weighed heavily with duty to their own parents in India, an ache compounded by guilt at having left them behind.
