THE GOD OF SMALL THINGS by Arundhati Roy

BOOK REVIEW : Now I know this won the Booker Prize and it received rave reviews, but I was really disappointed by it – perhaps I’d expected too much. It was as many said, compelling, emotive and deeply complex, but I found the relationships between the characters perplexing, and in particular the interaction between the twins Estha and Rahel quite disturbing at times. This story certainly did make me think, but unfortunately about things I’d really prefer not to! Not one I’d read again.
