On my best days, I find this quote does not go far enough.  Another world is already here, if we are willing to look for it. Sure, it’s different – but different can be glorious.  Do you see her?  Do you hear her?  Just a hint?

If you crave more than a sentence from the perceptive Roy, try the terrific novel The God of Small Things or the haunting nonfiction Capitalism: A Ghost Story.
