Helpful Score: 2
This novel is simply a work of literary genius. Roy couples an intriguing story along with Indian culture and values to create one of the best novels of the last century. One need not be familiar with Indian culture to enjoy the book, but it does help to know that India has a caste system which largely prohibits the mingling of certain peoples.
Her prose is fluid and the novel provides enough twists and turns for even the most reluctant reader. While this is the only book Roy has written, it's nothing short of fabulous. Give it a go if you haven't already.
