Mother Mary comes to me
On the shelf? Just pop in.
Arundhati Roy's first work of memoir, this is a soaring account both intimate and inspiring, of how the author became the person and the writer she is, shaped by circumstance, but above all by her complex relationship to the extraordinary, singular mother she describes as 'my shelter and my storm'.
