This study delves into Arundhati Roy's novel "The God of Small Things" to explore its intricate engagement with issues of identity, politics, and societal subversion. Drawing on Roy's own reflections on fiction as a means of presenting her world, the study analyzes how the novel, through the lens of the relationship between the twins Rahel and Estha, challenges conventional notions of identity. It examines the novel's portrayal of the complexities arising from genetic, geo-political, and cultural factors, suggesting that these complexities are the 'small things' that influence and shape individual and societal identities.
