Critics say that The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy, which tells the story of Estha and Rahel, the unconventional twins, is one of the greatest books in post-colonial Indian literature. The novel, The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy, interlinks the characters and plot of the twin siblings in the southern state of Kerala, whose personalities are demarcated from each other's. The narration moves in a nonlinear fashion and moves between the past and present.
