Last books I have read

American Short Story Masterpieces
The title says it all ! Among the 36 or so authors are : Arthur Miller, Philip Roth, Joyce Carol Oates, Flannery O'Connor...

The Return Journey by Maeve Binchy
Short stories too. They are all nice and positive with likeable characters.

The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri
An Indian family saga in the States. Or how the children of a 2d generation of immigrants cope with their origin. The 1st part is quite good but then it's quite flat. Most events are highly predictable.
