Abstract
The novel represents a social class of a particular social environment, like India. This social class dribbles the ball of problems from one corner to the other, and the impact of this in Arundhati Roy’s The God of Small Things is one of the representations of it. This research paper is aimed to reveal the depiction of character’s social class and the impact of their on their lives. One of the refrains Roy uses in The God of Small Things is Things can change in a day.” This phrase envelope the tortuousness of the characters’ lives; when change happens to them, it is usually on a large and enduring scale. The God of Small Things is the debut novel of the Indian writer Arundhati Roy. It is a story about the childhood experiences of fraternal twins whose lives are destroyed by the “Love Laws” that lay down “who should be loved, and how and how much.” The book explores how the small things affect people’s behaviour and their lives. The book also reflects its irony against casteism, which is a major discrimination that prevails in India.
