ScuolaScuola has designed a specific curriculum focused on the experience of learning a new language. Through reading about the impressions of Pulitzer-prize-winner Jhumpa Lahiri, we will investigate the process of learning to express oneself in another language.

Conveniently written in facing page translation, In Other Words, is suitable for readers at any level of competency.

Jhumpa Lahiri is an Indian American author. Lahiri’s debut short story collection Interpreter of Maladies (1999) won the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, and her first novel, The Namesake(2003), was adapted into the popular film of the same name. In December 2015 Lahiri published a non-fiction essay called “Teach Yourself Italian” in The New Yorker about her experience learning Italian. In the essay she declared that she is now only writing in Italian, and the essay itself was translated from Italian to English.
