The story "Interpreter of Maladies" is about an Indian tour guide who communicates with a client, a woman who tells a shameful secret from her past.
The laconic style and deep psychologism of Jumpa Lahiri depicts the inner world of the characters. The subtle humour of seemingly insignificant events in the life of ordinary people acquire a deep meaning.
The story is included in the debut book of Jhumpa Lahiri. This book won the Pulitzer Prize.
