Welcome! Come on in. Tell me of places you have explored and what you like to read.
Vela Patria is a play on the word velar in Spanish which means “to watch.” Patria is the Spanish word for the country or place where one was born or descended from. We all have a place we come from and here is where we can share common experiences.
Interpreter of Maladies / The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Jhumpa Lahiri’s short stories transported me to vibrant characters. The pace of her tales kept me looking for more. Each short story brought me through dark clouds into a bright ending. A very enjoyable read.
