by Arundhati Roy
The eloquence, passion, and political insight of Arundhati Roy’s
political essays have added legions of readers to those already familiar with
her Booker Prize-winning novel, The God of Small Things.
Roy’s new essay collection, War Talk, highlights the global
rise of militarism and religious and racial violence. Against the backdrop of
nuclear brinkmanship between India and Pakistan, the horrific massacre of
Muslims in Gujarat, and U.S. demands for an ever-expanding war on terror, she
calls into question the equation of nation and ethnicity.
