My Seditious Heart

"The only thing worth globalizing is dissent."

My Seditious Heart is more than a book—it’s a roaring archive of resistance. Spanning over two decades of Arundhati Roy’s most powerful nonfiction writing, this monumental collection offers a sweeping look at modern India and the world through the eyes of one of its fiercest truth-tellers.

From the early essays on the Narmada Bachao Andolan and the effects of dam-induced displacement, to searing critiques of India’s nuclear ambitions, capitalism, nationalism, and militarism, Roy takes on every sacred cow—fearlessly. Her sharp prose is driven by deep empathy for the oppressed, the displaced, and the silenced. She doesn’t just document events—she interrogates the systems behind them.

Whether she’s walking with Maoist rebels in the forests, dissecting the politics of Kashmir, or calling out corporate greed masked as development, every essay in this collection pulses with moral urgency. Roy refuses to be silent, and she invites the reader to do the same.

This is a book for those who are tired of the lies, exhausted by propaganda, and ready to confront injustice with both intellect and heart. It's massive—over 1,000 pages—but every page matters. Roy doesn’t offer easy answers. She demands engagement, introspection, and action.
