Got me at the end! (2008-04-29)

When I first ordered and received Unaccustomed Earth, I was not expecting a book of short stories. I had ordered Unaccustomed Earth because I loved The Namesake, and was reasonably happy with The Interpreter of Maladies. I'm generally not a fan of the short-story genre because I think that it's really difficult for authors to develop the characters and story lines sufficiently for me to identify with them. However, Unaccustomed Earth in the last 3 stories gave me exactly what I wanted - a mini-novel in the form of short stories. So, this book has something for the short story lovers as well as those like myself who like novels. Enjoy!
