interpreter of Maladies-Jhumpa Lahiri

This story was about a family, who aren't really connected, and their trip to India, the mother is in her own world, mostly revolving around herself, with no maternal instinct towards her children, the father is oblivious to everything, and the children don't really pay any attention to anything their parents do. They travel to see the sights and important artifacts of their native land, with their tour guide to show them the way. The story is full of strange relationships, and irony. the one example of irony that stuck out to me was the fact that the father, who was supposed to know nothing about India, knows of all the places of attraction, and the tour guide, who should know nothing about America, knows things that the family doesn't.
