Which two parts of this excerpt from "hell-heaven" by jhumpa lahiri most clearly show the mother's astonishment at how pranab kaku's bengali heritage was underrepresented at the wedding? my mother was shocked that fewer than thirty people had been invited, and she was more perplexed than honored that, of all the bengalis pranab kaku knew by then, we were the only ones on the list. at the wedding, we sat, like the other guests, first on the hard wooden pews of the church and then at a long table that had been set up for lunch. though we were the closest thing pranab kaku had to a family that day, we were not included in the group photographs that were taken on the grounds of the country club, with deborah's parents and grandparents and her many siblings, and neither my mother nor my father got up to make a toast. my mother did not appreciate the fact that deborah had made sure that my parents, who did not eat beef, were given fish instead of filet mignon like everyone else.
