Unaccustomed Earth - 5

Sudha seems to be a bit different from the typical characters that have appeared so far. Sudha does not seem resentful of her American-Bengali up bringing. She mentions that she watned her houshold to mirror those of her friends with younger siblings and once her brother was born it was. She's respectful towards her parents - I guess buying her younger brother alchohol is going against them a bit but she never does it to spite them. Even Sudha's rebellious stage when she's in college isn't that bad. Sudha is different fromteh other chacaracters we've seen so far because of her respect and working relaionship with her parents, her not rejecting Bengali culture, and her embracement of the fact that she was brought up as a Bengali-American. She has no time to focus on these things it seems because she's too focused on the younger brother of hers who does seem to embody these qualites of Lahiri's characters thta Sudha doesn not.
