A Pox on Houghton Mifflin

My brand new copy of The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri is missing about 30 pages. (There is a duplicate section, instead). Thanks, Houghton Mifflin.

Now I've got to get back to the bookstore and hope they've got a copy with all the pages. Bah.

It's good so far. Up to page 164, that is, where my copy jumps to page 197. Although I think I prefer The Interpreter of Maladies. Of course, it had all of its' pages, so I may be slightly biased.

Lame.
