AN ARUNDHATI ROY READER
Gentle Reader,
You are in for a treat. Arundhati Roy is one of the most remarkable writers I've had the pleasure to have discovered since the race for Pox Americana has really started heating up in the wake of the Bush coup d'etat. She cuts through the rhetoric of Repuglicans and the hypocrisy of hubris like a lancet through ghee. When I read Roy, I often say to myself, "brilliant, why didn't I phrase the argument like that".
