«Los nombres de las estrellas» is a collection of short stories by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, published by Punto de Lectura in paperback (276 pages, in Spanish).
Stories about women of different generations who, marked by migration, experience the clash between inherited Indian culture and Western life. Each story shows a different attitude toward that conflict: from the old woman who defies gossip to the daughter who learns to understand, always in search of identity and autonomy.
Original title: The Unknown Errors of Our Lives (2001), translated by Dolors Gallart. This edition dates from 2003.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in migration, female identity, and the Indian diaspora.
