Thoughts on EMDR and Arundhati Roy’s novel, The God of small things

I want to bring Arundhati Roy’s remarkable, new novel, The God of Small Things, to the attention of psychotherapists, especially EMDR therapists, as we work with people in pain and suffering from serious psychological trauma. Almost every character in the book, like many of our clients, has been traumatized y death, loss, rejection, sexual abuse gender or caste exploitation, abandonment, violence, deceit, betrayal, inappropriate blaming, shame, rage, guilt, lack of validation, humiliation, fear, and/or terror.
