Arundhati Roy is a bestselling author who has written books such as Azadi and My Seditious Heart. Her latest book, "The Ministry of Utmost Happiness," is a piercing exploration of modern empire, nationalism, and rising fascism that gives us the tools to resist and fight back. Roy's writing combines the skills of an architect and a writer, illuminating the hidden structures of modern empire and revealing their workings so that we can resist. Her subjects include war, nationalism, fundamentalism, and rising fascism, turbocharged by neoliberalism and technology. However, Roy also explores themes such as truth, justice, freedom, resistance, solidarity, and imagination, particularly the imagination to see what is in front of us, envision another way, and fight for it. Roy's voice is distinct and compelling in conversation and in her writing, and this essential collection of interviews with David Barsamian, conducted over two decades from 2001 to the present, explores these themes and more. The book also includes an afterword by Naomi Klein.
