A review by jena_t
Azadi: Freedom. Fascism. Fiction. by Arundhati Roy

challenging slow-paced

3.0

I am a fan of Roy's fictional work and also her public persona, but some of these essays and speeches felt very one sided. I am sure that the feelings she has are valid and are mirrored by huge swathes of people who live in dire circumstances, but the book left me thinking that I needed to do more research myself and that I only had half a story. 
I also didn't enjoy the many excerpts of her fictional works being thrown in, it was a little too much and not why I wanted to read this book.
