A tight and unmarked copy-" In her first novel, award-winning Indian screenwriter Arundhati Roy conjures a whoosh of wordplay that rises from the pages like a brilliant jazz improvisation. The God of Small Things is nominally the story of young twins Rahel and Estha and the rest of their family, but the book feels like a million stories spinning out indefinitely; it is the product of a genius child mind that takes everything in and transforms it in an alchemy of poetry. The God of Small Things is at once exotic and familiar to the Western reader, written in English that's completely new and invigorated by the Asian Indian influences of culture and language.- Set mainly in Kerala, India, in 1969, The God of Small Things is the story of Rahel and her twin brother Estha, who learn that their whole world can change in a single day, that love and life can be lost in a moment. Armed only with the invincible innocence of children, they seek to craft a childhood for themselves amid the wreckage that constitutes their family. Sweet and heartbreaking, ribald and profound, this novel heralds a voice so powerful and original that it burns itself into the reader's memory." "A work of highly conscious art. Like a devotionally built temple, The God of Small Things builds a massive interlocking structure of fine, intensely felt details." -John Updike, The New Yorker "Roy weaves her bold and startling narrative in sequences of luminously rendered scenes.remarkable." -The Globe and Mail, Vintage, 1998, 5<
