10. The God of Small Things

Arundhati Roy (1997)

The Telegraph: "This intense and exquisitely written tale of fraternal twins unfolds against a backdrop of communism, the caste system, and Christianity in Kerala from the Sixties to the Nineties. 'Change is one thing,' writes Roy in her Booker Prize-winning debut, 'Acceptance is another'."
