Description
Twenty years, a thousand pages, and now a single beautiful edition of Arundhati Roy''s complete non-fiction.''Arundhati Roy is one of the most confident and original thinkers of our time'' Naomi KleinMy Seditious Heart collects the work of a two-decade period when Arundhati Roy devoted herself to the political essay as a way of opening up space for justice, rights and freedoms in an increasingly hostile environment. Taken together, these essays trace her twenty year journey from the Booker Prize-winning The God of Small Things to the extraordinary The Ministry of Utmost Happiness: a journey marked by compassion, clarity and courage. Radical and readable, they speak always in defence of the collective, of the individual and of the land, in the face of the destructive logic of financial, social, religious, military and governmental elites.In constant conversation with the themes and settings of her novels, the essays form a near-unbroken memoir of Arundhati Roy''s journey as both a writer and a citizen, of both India and the world, from ''The End of Imagination'', which begins this book, to ''My Seditious Heart'', with which it ends.''The world has never had to face such global confusion. Only in facing it can we make sense of what we have to do. And this is precisely what Arundhati Roy does. She makes sense of what we have to do. Thereby offering an example. An example of what? Of being fully alive in our world, such as it is, and of getting close to and listening to those for whom this world has become intolerable'' John Berger''Arundhati Roy calls for ''factual precision'' alongside of the ''real precision of poetry.'' Remarkably, she combines those achievements to a degree that few can hope to approach'' Noam Chomsky''Unflinching emotional as well as political intelligence . . . In an age of intellectual logrolling and mass-manufactured infotainment, she continues to offer bracing ways of seeing, thinking and feeling'' TIME
