Roman Stories

In her first short story collection since winning the Pulitzer Prize, Jhumpa Lahiri explores the vibrant, multifaceted essence of Rome through nine compelling narratives. Each story delves into the lives of its characters against the backdrop of the city’s rich history and contemporary tensions, touching on themes of identity, culture, and the complexities of home. Lahiri's masterful prose, written in her adopted Italian, captures the heartbeat of this magnificent city and is accompanied by seamless translations that enhance the reading experience.
