The God of Small Things: A Novel

The beloved debut novel about an affluent Indian family forever changed by one fateful day in 1969, from the author of the upcoming The Ministry of Utmost Happiness

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • MAN BOOKER PRIZE WINNER

Compared favorably to the works of Faulkner and Dickens, Arundhati Roy’s modern classic is equal parts powerful family saga, forbidden love story, and piercing political drama. The seven-year-old twins Estha and Rahel see their world shaken irrevocably by the arrival of their beautiful young cousin, Sophie. It is an event that will lead to an illicit liaison and tragedies accidental and intentional, exposing “big things [that] lurk unsaid” in a country drifting dangerously toward unrest. Lush, lyrical, and unnerving, The God of Small Things is an award-winning landmark that started for its author an esteemed career of fiction and political commentary that continues unabated.

Praise for The God of Small Things

“Dazzling . . . as subtle as it is powerful.”—Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

“[The God of Small Things] offers such magic, mystery, and sadness that, literally, this reader turned the last page and decided to reread it. Immediately. It’s that haunting.”—USA Today

“The quality of Ms. Roy’s narration is so extraordinary—at once so morally strenuous and so imaginatively supple—that the reader remains enthralled all the way through.”—The New York Times Book Review

“A novel of real ambition must invent its own language, and this one does.”—John Updike, The New Yorker

“Outstanding. A glowing first novel.”—Newsweek

“Splendid and stunning.”—The Washington Post Book World

网友对The God of Small Things: A Novel的评论

喜欢,就是比较贵

只看过中文版,我很想看英文版,快点进货呀.很欣赏这本书,尤奇是布局和比喻的运用都相当神奇

这本书我很久就想买了,但是在亚马逊上买的有点失望啊,感觉不像正版而且又那么贵。纸张白偏灰,而且从侧面看装订得参差不齐,要不是觉得麻烦,真想退了。

书很小,就是大概我们经常用的16开纸的1/4左右的大小,纸张很差,而且有味道。很想退的来着但是觉得太麻烦就忍了,当个摆设吧,不准备读了。

书质量不错,快递也很好
