Abstract
Arudhati Roy in her evocative style unleashes the ideological assault through fictional narration on the schisms and fissures in the Indian society presenting a panacea of a new world away from humdrum of daily life into a graveyard. Unlike her first novel, this piece presents a more sympathetic view to Marxist ideology and struggle and the likeness of Marxist literary theory can be traced in the entire narrative. There we find class struggle with a run for progress through industrialization and pursuit of technology coupled with eco hazards. The novel speaks the politics of its social period with caste and creed struggling to overpower the opponents. Cultural materialism is replete in every act and social move, and the political circumstances and their influencesare apparent in the genre.
