Books at the Bar

This is the second novel for Arundhati Roy and it explores how happiness is perceived differently by different people. It is an aching love story and a decisive remonstration, a story told in a whisper, in a shout, through unsentimental tears and sometimes with a bitter laugh. Each of its characters is indelibly, tenderly rendered. Its heroes are people who have been broken by the world they live in and then rescued, patched together by acts of love—and by hope.

The books are available for check out at the library or through the Libby App.
