Year's End
Stories from a collection by Jhumpa Lahiri. During a Christmas visit to his family home, a young man struggles to accept his widowed father's new young Indian wife.
Hari Dhillon reads Year's End, the last in the series of stories by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jhumpa Lahiri, exploring the dark secrets of family life through the Bengali immigrant experience.
During a holiday visit to his family home three years after his mother's death, a young man struggles to accept his father's new, and very young, Indian wife.
Year's End begins in America, but like all the stories in this series, spills back over memories and generations to India, following new lives forged in the wake of loss.
