Summary: A braided narrative of astonishing force and originality, The Ministry of Utmost Happiness is at once a love story and a provocation. A novel as inventive as it is emotionally engaging. It is told with a whisper, in a shout, through joyous tears, and sometimes with a bitter laugh. Its heroes, both present and departed, have been broken by the world they live in, and then mended by love. For this reason, they will never surrender.
