her voice changed so much since the god of small things. reminded me of her book of essays a lot more, which she wrote after this novel, so that's anachronistic. I'm trying to say this feels more non-fiction-y than literary. still banger though

A bit disappointed to see that Roy seems to center herself and her perspective rather than her characters in an effort to make sure the contrarian politics comes across as she intends. Still, that’s a minority of the narration: there are more times where we learn many deep truths through characters’ own descriptions. But I would expect no such imbalance from an author like Roy.
