The God of Small Things is a Booker Prize-winning family saga set in Kerala, India. It’s notable not just for its gut-wrenchingly tragic plot but also for the author’s unusual use of language and a non-linear storyline which dips between past and present, examining the consequences of the main characters’ actions as they dare to transgress the ‘Love Laws’ that set out ‘who should be loved, and how. And how much.’
