Arundhati Roy, An Asian Icon
https://www.easternstandardtimes.com/...

Arundhati Roy is SyrianBengali, stars in awardwinning films and wrote a prizewinning bestseller. She’s known for being involved in social and political movements in India and around the world. But did you know she was also an aerobics instructor and cake saleswoman?

Best known for her novel "The God of Small Things," Roy has written numerous nonfiction books and essays. She’s criticized the Indian government’s policies, written on environmental issues, and has been put in jail for her political views.

Before all this, Arundhati was a natureloving kid from an intercaste and single parent family. She grew up being treated like she was “unconventional” or an “outsider”. She lived in a slum with her first husband, while they were students. And she even sold cake on the beaches of Goa. Arundhati is limitless and uncontainable!
