On this week's episode, New York Times reporter and standup comic Sopan Deb discusses Missed Translations: Meeting the Immigrant Parents Who Raised Me (Dey Street, April 21). Deb's "refreshing" debut memoir is the story of his journey to India (and select parts of New Jersey) in search of answers to the many questions surrounding his family's estrangement. Then our editors join with their reading recommendations for the week, including books by Vikram Madan, Deborah Wiles, John Freeman, and C Pam Zhang.
