The kids are the biggest victims as they are snatched of their childhood, their happiness sought in small things. The ill-fated visit ends in the demise of Sophie for which Estha and Rahel have to pay a heavy price. The story goes further when Chacko’s ex-wife Margaret brings their daughter Sophie to Ayemenem on a visit from London. Ammu works in the family’s pickle factory in spite of which she and her kids are denied any rights, let alone love, by her Oxford returned brother Chacko who considers them nothing less than dogs to be fed. ![]() The God of Small Things is a painful story about seven years old Estha and Rahel, two-egg twins born tor Ammu (mother) who live together in their maternal grandparents’ house in Ayemenem (Kerala) following Ammu’s divorce. The book won the Man Booker Prize in 1997 and has been considered as the face of Indian Cultural Society in the South Indian state of Kerala, by many critics. A journey through the pages of Indian history, intense political drama understanding the basics of the Indian Class System, social obligations to love, discrimination and betrayal seen by the eyes of a disabled family based in Kerala is the shortest explanation one can give for The God Of Small Things by Arundhati Roy. ![]() ![]() ![]() My Life in Our Fathe… on Free Verse Friday: Solsti… Goddess Fish Blog Tour for “Dancing With Trees and Waving With Leaves” by S.WOW Blog Tour for “Write Out Loud” -Guest Post by Naomi D.
