Arundhati Roy was born to a Keralite Syrian Christian mother and a Bengali Hindu father in Shillong, Meghalaya. She grew up in the Kerala town of Aymanam. At the age of 16, she left Kerala for Delhi and began a bohemian lifestyle, living in a tiny hut with a tin roof and selling empty beer bottles. After that, she went on to study architecture at the Delhi School of Architecture. She started writing The God of Small Things in 1992 and completed it in 1996. She earned a half-million-pound advance, and the book's rights were sold in 21 countries.
