Mother Mary Comes To Me : From Wounds to Words

Mother Mary Comes To Me: A review by Deepika Verma

Arundhati Roy’s latest release is climbing bestseller charts in India, the US, UK, and Canada — impressive, yes, but that’s not what draws me in.

Bestsellers often follow trends; Mother Mary Comes to Me feels different. This book comes from her soul, from her heart — that’s the real gift. This being her first memoir, it feels deeply honest and brave. It speaks of courage, memory, love, and resistance in ways only Roy can capture. And the writing? Simply exquisite, lyrical yet piercing.
What moves me most is how Roy has taken her grief, her questions, even her shame, and turned them into art that teaches, heals, and connects. Her words remind us why true literature will always outlast fashion.

If you love books that stir your soul, this is one you cannot miss.
