In this collection of thought-provoking essays, Arundhati Roy explores the complex and multifaceted concept of freedom against the backdrop of global upheaval. She examines the symbolic power of "Azadi" in both Kashmir and India, while considering how the COVID-19 pandemic has challenged notions of borders, incarceration, and authoritarianism. Roy invites readers to reflect on the meaning of freedom, language, and imagination in these tumultuous times, viewing the pandemic as a portal for envisioning a different future.
