Jhumpa Lahiri Reading in Brentwood--AAPW exclusive

Pulitzer Prize-winner Jhumpa Lahiri read from her new novel Unaccustomed Earth (Knopf, 2008) at the Brentwood School last night.

We were also treated with a guest interviewer, LA Times Book Editor David Ulin.

These are the basics. More to come. Staff writer Parissa and I have more to share on Brentwood School, the tony prep school nestled in the hills, the audience,
and how Mr. Ulin almost ran her over as he pulled in. All good stuff + lots of quotes + a great interview by David.
