In Other Words: A Memoir

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The Pulitzer Prize-winning, bestselling author of The Namesake delivers a powerful meditation on the process of learning to express herself in Italian--and the stunning journey of a writer seeking a new voice. - "The most evocative, unpretentious, astute account of a writing life I have read." --The Washington Post

On a post-college visit to Florence, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jhumpa Lahiri fell in love with the Italian language. Twenty years later, seeking total immersion, she and her family relocated to Rome, where she began to read and write solely in her adopted tongue. In Other Words is a startling act of self-reflection.
