    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The incredible first memoir from the Booker-winning radical icon Arundhati Roy, author of The God of Small Things

    THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
    WINNER OF THE INDIE BOOK AWARDS 2026
    SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMENS PRIZE FOR NONFICTION 2026


    ---Heart-smashed--- by the death of the mother she ran from at age eighteen and shaken by the intensity of her response, Arundhati Roy began this remarkable memoir --- a soaring account, both intimate and inspiring, of how the author became the person and the writer she is: shaped by circumstance, but above all by her relationship to her extraordinary, singular mother, Mary, who she describes as ---my shelter and my storm---.

    With the scale, sweep and depth of her novels, and the passion, political clarity and warmth of her essays, Mother Mary Comes to Me is an ode to freedom, a tribute to thorny love and savage grace --- a memoir like no other.

    ---I loved Arundhati Roy---s memoir; raw, tender, honest about the ferocity of mother-daughter relationships and the making of a writer--- Nilanjana Roy, Financial Times (Books of the Year)

    ---Outstanding. Roy---s life story is truly remarkable--- Nicola Sturgeon, Observer (Books of the Year)
