Once in a Lifetime is a story which Lahiri writes about the disposition typical of an Indian family through the eyes of a young Bengali girl, Hema. She narrates her common childhood memories which shows how they moved from Cambridge to Calcutta and back to Cambridge. Because the story is told by Hema, it is a third-person omniscient perspective. It is omniscient because the protagonist knows all the details about the story since this story is about her childhood memories.
