Brief description and customer reviews:
Mother Mary Comes to Me
Arundhati Roy’s first memoir is a soaring and intimate account of her journey to becoming the writer and person she is today. Shaped by circumstances and a complex relationship with her extraordinary mother, she describes her mother as “my shelter and my storm.”
After her mother Mary’s death in September 2022, Roy felt “heart-smashed,” yet also puzzled and “more than a little ashamed” by her intense response. She began to write to make sense of her feelings about the mother she ran from at age eighteen, “not because I didn’t love her, but in order to continue to love her.”
This astonishing, sometimes disturbing, and surprisingly funny memoir traces her life from childhood in Kerala, India—where her mother founded a school—to her acclaimed novels and essays.
With the depth of her novels The God of Small Things and The Ministry of Utmost Happiness, and the passion of her essays, Mother Mary Comes to Me is an ode to freedom and a tribute to thorny love and savage grace. It is truly a memoir like no other.
