The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri

[Greg_phpbb3_import1]

I finally got around to seeing this on the television. It's a very quiet film. Although, I came in late, I'd kind of have to say the film centered more on Tabu than Mr. Penn. Or at least it was 50/50. It was very emotional when the father died and the family's reaction to it. I especially hated/liked/hated Gogol's distance from the parents (Oh, I'll call her back tomorrow)

Now I'm probably going to have to read the book. Which will really cut into the time I'm devoting to my 19th century novels.
