# The God of Small Thing.....
The God of Small Things was written by Indian writer Arundhati Roy in 1097. The novel is about two fraternal twins who reunite us young adults, after family tensions have kept them apart for many year. The novel won the Booker prize in 1997. Their mother, Ammu, takes them to Ayemenem to live with her family.
The story is set in Ayemenem, now part of Kottayam district in kerala, India, the temporal setting shifts back and forth between 1969,when fraternal twins Rahel and Esthappen are seven year old, and 1993,when the twins are reunited.
Though Rahel and Estha are both protagonists of this novel, we get to know Rahel more completely as since we spend significantly more time seeing the world through her eyes. As a child, Rahel exists in a kind of harmony with Estha, her twin brother Who is eighteen minutes her senior. Their personalities seem to balance each other. Esth is serious and earnest, Rahel becomes preoccupied with things and can't seen to sit still. Estha seems to be the better behaved of the two Rahel is the one who hides in the dirty airport curtains when she doesn't want to say hi to sophia mol.
We learn that Estha really the only reason she returns. Even though she hasn't seen him in 23 year, we can sense that he's still most important person in her life. Whenever they are close, they don't even have to speak to know the other is there. They still have an innate sense of being completed by each other. This sort of helps explain why Rahel and Estha have sex at the end of the book. Although the idea of incest is really uncomfortable for most readers. Being together makes the two haves a complex whole.
# The Ministry of Utmost Happiness .....
The Ministry of utmost happiness is the second novel by Indian writer Arundhati roy, published in 2017. The ministry of utmost happiness takes us on an intimate jorny of many years across the Indian subcontinent from the cramped neighbourhoods of old Delhi and the roads of the new city to the mountains and valleys of Kashmir and beyond, where war is peace and peace is war.
It is an aching love story and a decisive remonstration, a story told in a whisper, in a shout, Through u sentimental tears and sometimes with a bitter laugh. Each of its characters is indelible. Tenderly rendered. Its heroes are people who have been broken by the world they live in and then rescued. Patched together by acts of love and by hope.
As this ravishing, deeply humane novel braids these lives together, it relivents what a novel can do and can be. The ministry of utmost happiness miracle of arundhati Roy's storytelling gifts.
Thank you....
