Jhumpa Lahiri-Unaccustomed Earth a collection of short stories from the author of The Namesake.

I recently started reading Henning Mankell's books, after watching the Wallender series on TV. He is a terrific detective writer. Another Swedish writere of the same calibre is Stieg Larsson, with his Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series.
The three Makell books I have read are, The Dogs of Riga, Firewall and Faceless Killers.
