Arundhati Roy has written only two novels, both of these are masterpieces nodoubtly. She wrote a number of profound non fiction books. As per my knowledge, after Sir V.S Naipaul no one has received such a massive welcome from the readers in both of the genres. Thanks a lot for uploading this clip 🙏

She lived up to her words. She took 20 years to settle down to write her second book.

How can someone in that age be so sorted out by themselves. She is always a wonder to me.♥️♥️

The sheer rationality with which she faces the interviewer is extraordinary, it's a shame majority of Indians do not respect her because her words never suited the government's propoganda and moreover exposed its lies.

So true Suyansh, I totally agree. Such a phenomenal author treated with oppression and disrespect. It's really a matter of great shame. Art and literature seem to be dying rapidly. What she writes, in fiction or non-fiction, is meaningful and stands true. She refused to be a slave to the government. I want her to live forever on earth. intellectuals like her are a ray of hope for us.

@Sadavatsale Mathrubhumi "average writing skills" don't bring you Booker Prize, rest of your argument comes straight out of state propoganda machinery so debating is futile
