Bi+ Book Club Reading for June

BOP's Bi+ Book Club's June meeting will be Wednesday 6/13 at 7pm at Quatrefoil Library! Please note that this month's meeting is on the SECOND Wednesday! We will be discussing "The Ministry of Utmost Happiness" by Arundhati Roy.
​
"The Ministry of Utmost Happiness takes us on an intimate journey of many years across the Indian subcontinent — from the cramped neighborhoods of Old Delhi and the roads of the new city to the mountains and valleys of Kashmir and beyond, where war is peace and peace is war. The tale begins with Anjum—who used to be Aftab—unrolling a threadbare Persian carpet in a city graveyard she calls home. We encounter the odd, unforgettable Tilo and the men who loved her—including Musa, sweetheart 
and ex-sweetheart, lover and ex-lover; their fates are as entwined as their arms used to be and always will be.
As this ravishing, deeply humane novel braids these lives together, it reinvents what a novel can do and can be. The Ministry of Utmost Happiness demonstrates on every page the miracle of Arundhati Roy’s storytelling gifts."
