There is so much to grasp in this book, so much to understand and think about. This is the type of book you'd want to read three times just so you would fully understand everything. Right now in "The God of Small Things" Sophie Mol has just flown in to India with her mother. "Then, there, among the wash'n'wear suits and shinny suitscases, Sohpie Mol Thimble-drinker. Coffin-cartwheeler." (pg 134) The story is about to change, about to become a series of events that will turn all their lives upside down. Now the book will truly begin.
