Fiction Book Group with Alexis
Discusses The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy
Led by former Greenlight general manager Alexis, our Fiction Book Group meets monthly to discuss paperback fiction, reading broadly in contemporary fiction with the occasional diversion into classics.
For May, the group discusses The God of Small Things, the Booker Prize-winning novel by Arundhati Roy, about an affluent Indian family forever changed by one fateful day in 1969.
Compared favorably to the works of Faulkner and Dickens, Roy’s modern classic is equal parts powerful family saga, forbidden love story, and piercing political drama. It is lush, lyrical, and unnerving, and the award-winning landmark that started for its author an esteemed career of fiction and political commentary that continues unabated.
