전기 및 작가의 여정
Jhumpa Lahiri, born Nilanjana Sudeshna Lahiri in London on July 11, 1967, grew up in the United States after her Bengali parents moved the family to South Kingstown, Rhode Island, when she was very young. Her father worked as a librarian and her mother as a schoolteacher, and the household preserved Bengali language and custom while also exposing her to the dislocations of immigrant life. That tension between inheritance and adaptation became central to her fiction. She wrote from childhood, but her commitment to writing sharpened after Barnard College, where she earned a B.A. in English in 1989, and then at Boston University, where she completed three master’s degrees and a Ph.D. in Renaissance Studies.
