1. Compare and contrast the role of Memory in GOST and AHWOSG.
2. Analyze the tension between past and present, Western and traditional. How are these things in conflict throughout the book. Use specific examples.
3) Examine the role of Performance in GOD OF SMALL THINGS. How does it relate to the novel's concerns with memory, post-colonialism, familial structure/interactions, etc?
4) Examine one or several repeated phrases, such as "Things can change in a day," for their importance throughout the book. Why is Arundhati Roy so persistent in using these repetitions? How do they play into the larger themes of the book?
