As you can tell, Irish Granny loves to read. I am now reading a book called
The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri (Indian writer...as in India). Found their way of life so similar to the first generation Irish. They try to take their children back to India. Teach them the Indian traditions. Associate mainly with Indian people. Cook Indian foods and then....their children become Americans! I am halfway through but seems so familiar with how we were brought up...(following Irish traditions)...at this point in the book the children are young professionals responding to the American culture. I'll have to let you know if somewhere along the way they go back to what their parents instilled in them.
