noodle0603 's review for:
The Ministry of Utmost Happiness
by Arundhati Roy
Definitely a CHARACTER driven book. The plot was not strong, by design. the story centers on two main characters Anjum (most of the book) and Tilo, who is only really introduced halfway through. Themes include class discrimination and religious conflict (Muslim/Hindu). There were a lot of characters, and listening on audio book it was hard to keep track of everyone and their backstories… The Tilo story line was particularly difficult for me to latch onto, because it started so late into the book. The book seemed to be trying to accomplish too much. It was Fine. It did not make much impression on me. I listened to it and then moved on.
