Abstract
Arundhati Roy (1961-), originally a student of architecture, started her writing career as a screenplay writer. Before becoming one of the most popular fiction writers within the canon of post-Rushdie Indian Anglophone literature, Roy wrote screenplays for films like In Which Annie Gives It Those Ones (1989) and Electric Moon (1992). Roy is best known for her debut novel The God of Small Things (1997), which won the Man Booker Prize and went on to become one of the most successful Indian novels across the world.
