The Ministry of Utmost Happiness

Miss Roy has her own distinct style of writing. Combined with vibrant plot it leaves an aftertaste, somewhat bitter and melancholic in my mind. It has happened for ‘The Gods of Small Things', and it did for this book to a certain extent.

The plot (or plots?), as I've mentioned earlier is vibrant, in geography, politics, and culture. In a whole it describes, in my opinion, a dystopia that is being denied in India.
