The Namesake: Book by Jhumpa lahiri

Media and literature are greatly different in movies and literature, so if you try to move to another media, such as acclimatization, something is lost in translation and you do a different view. I think that it is disadvantageous not only because it takes only several hours to tell the whole story but also what interests the audience about what is happening on the front screen when original works are made into a movie. Effects, visual effects, and music can influence the audience and keep the scene in the mind for a longer time, but this is an advantage of being able to display specific content.
