Watch Arundhati Roy's speech at the Lanaan Foundation, "Come September." Here is a link to the transcript. Then post on the way her political and philosophical ideas shed light on the intents of her novel. She claims that her novel-writing and her political activism share a common message and purpose. Referring specifically to the film, can you find Roy's political perspective in her famous novel? How do her convictions perhaps explain the novels' style and choice of topics - even its details?
