In altre parole is a “linguistic autobiography”: the story of the encounter, the clash and the
love for Italian language from a writer like Lahiri, already winner of the Pulizer Prize for her
English language novels. Through a disemboweled language, cut to the bone, the writer
probes his own complex identity, forged in the “triangulation” between her Bengali mother-
tongue, English (the language of writing and speech) and Italian.
