God of Small Things remains to me to be a mystery. Most people are confident that it is meant to be Velutha, and I agree, but I feel like there so many hints of 'small things' in this book that I am not sure which is the God of all the others. I want to read this book again, because maybe then I will pick up on things I haven't noticed, and will understand more of the woven plot. The small things are the bits of life that form the whole terrible mess.

I would say that Sophie mol is the god of small things. She appears through out the whole book and has that symbol of love. She died leaving memories of past life. She is what makes the family keep going. She was so little too young to die and when she did the little things that seemed unimportant was precious to the family. they realized that life can be quick so be ready.
Well you are right with some of it. i believe that Velutha is The God of Small Things, but i also think that he is The God of Big Things as well. Roy often talks about Big things and Small things.
