It is a story about the childhood experiences of a pair of fraternal twins who become victims of circumstance. The book is a description of how the small things in life build up, translate into people's behavior and affect their lives.
The God of Small Things (1997) is a novel by Indian author Arundhati Roy. The book won the Booker Prize in 1997. One of the chapters in the book is also called "The God of small things".
The God of Small Things is Roy's first book, and as of 2010[update], is her only novel. Completed in 1996, the book took four years to write. The potential of the story was first recognized by Pankaj Mishra, an editor with HarperCollins, who sent it to three British publishers. Roy received half-a-million pounds in advances, and rights to the book were sold in 21 countries.
While generally praised, the book did receive some criticism for its verbosity and controversial subject matter

评分所有试图热爱文字的作者都会存有两种类型的梦想,一种是用文字建筑情节,一种是用文字织绣情感。而对文字上瘾的作者还会有更奢侈的欲念,诸如——用文字来作画,也许是伦勃朗,也许是夏加尔。当我一字一句地阅读印度女作家阿兰达蒂•洛伊的《微物之神》时,我仿佛看到文字...
评分我想,在看完第一节之后,你便能决定对这本书的爱恶。要不觉得那幅缓缓展开的图景丰润饱满,要不觉得腻味。我则匆匆上Albris下订单去了。 先不说书中那些浓稠的主题:种族、爱情、历史、政治、家族、东西文化冲突……来自东方的作家要想在西方文学界取得认同,是不能不描绘...
评分 评分他是谁? 他可能是谁? 失落之神。 微物之神。 鸡皮疙瘩和突然微笑的神。 他一次只能做一件事情。 如果吻她,他就不能和她说话; 如果爱她,他就不能离开; 如果说话,他就不能倾听; 如果作战,他就不能赢。 ...
