By the end of this profound tale, the reader comes across four generations of Udayan and Subhash Mitra’s family, two brothers whose choices in life stand testimony to the idea that personal is political. In her second novel, Lahiri takes us on a journey spanning the history of two countries over a span of around fifty years through the lens of a single family. Jhumpa Lahiri has a propensity to touch every string of emotion in you through her characters, and give everyone the liberty to take home what connects with them the best. The book covers so many themes that every review you will ever read will talk about something different as being the primary focus of the novel. The Lowland is about nothing yet everything.
