Which of these do you find more compelling? Tim, "compelling" is a red herring. I've made no secret of my opinion that Arundhati Roy is fundamentally dishonest; in approximately the same way that Tom Friedman is dishonest (and how's that for irony?) - Her agenda shines through even more in what is NOT said (i.e, carefully or conveniently omitted from her effusions) than in what is said - though that is certainly shrill enough. Read as fiction, her faults are many. Read as fact or analysis, not even in the frame. Udhay -- ((Udhay Shankar N)) ((udhay @ pobox.com)) ((www.digeratus.com))
