Jhumpa Lahiri Quotes

Kaushik, What About A Picture?" My Father Suggested. I Shook My Head. I Had Left My Camera, My Father's Old Yashica, At School. "But You Always Have It With You." That Look Of Irritated Disappointment, The One That Had Appeared The Day My Mother Died And Was Missing Now That He'd Married Chitra, Passed Briefly Across My Father's Face. "I Forgot It," I Said. It Was True, I Did Always Have The Camera With Me. Even On Quiet Weekends When I Came Home And My Father And I Saw No One I Would Bring It, Taking It With Me On Walks. This Time I Had Left It Behind, Knowing That I Would Not Want To Document Anything. "I Don't Understand," My Father Said. "Neither Do I," I Replied. "You Haven't Wanted A Picture Of Anything In Years." "That's Not True." "It Is." We Were Stating Facts And At The Same Time Arguing, An Argument Whose Depths Only He And I Could Fully Comprehend.
