'Never again will a single story be told as though it's the only one.' -- John Berger

A larger format that maybe I'll be able to read. Print is too small in the mass market paperback.

With her debut novel, The God of Small Things, Arundhati Roy won the 1997 Booker Prize.

Ever since I watched We – The Unauthorised Arundhati Roy, I had to read some of her writing, be it her political essays or the novel The God of Small Things.

In We, based on her speech 'Come September', Arundhati Roy has a way with words that is truly amazing.

We is not about Arundhati Roy, it is about her words.

I would have liked to have read The God of Small Things some time ago, but the print was too small. Luckily I found a large format copy, or it would have been wait until the summer and read in my garden.

Before reading The God of Small Things, I watched We again. I wanted to her voice, so that was the voice I had in my mind as I read the book.

As I expected from We, The God of Small Things is a beautifully written book.
