The cover image for an audiobook version of Mother Mary Comes To Me, by Arundhati Roy. An image of a woman smoking a cigarette, staring into the middle distance. Is it an image of the author? Her mother? Someone else? I am unsure. I suppose I could find out, but it also seems unimportant, somehow. The voice, though- that is important. The author reads it, and I am entranced. Her voice is not exactly warm, but it is rich and sonorous, and the music of it enraptures me. I read The God of Small Things a long time ago, and I remember loving it, but truth be told I can't remember any details of it. Even when I go back to it after listening to this memoir and start it over, I can't recall any of it. But, once again, I love it, and all the more so now that I hear it in the author's own voice, after listening to her. I read slowly now, at the pace of her speech, and it is far slower than my usual reading speed, but I hear the melodies and the rhythms of the sentences now; I hear them sing.

"Colorful demonstrations and weekend marches are vital but alone are not powerful enough to stop wars. Wars will be stopped only when soldiers refuse to fight, when workers refuse to load weapons onto ships and aircraft, when people boycott the economic outposts of Empire that are strung across the globe." ~ Arundhati Roy

What a mess. Sorry. A kitchen sink of contemporary Indian catastrophes. I didn’t mind listening but also never really got involved. It was a little too much for me.

To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget. Arundhati Roy, The Cost of Living
