In fact, in 1 CE India accounted for 33 per cent of world GDP, while UK, France and Germany combined had a mere 3 per cent. Even as late as 1700, on the eve of British rule in India, India produced 25 per cent of world GDP while Britain was just over 2 per cent.

Ghandy, however, did not explain how a racist Anglo-Saxon nation could remain racist and still become rich and industrialized. I came across this author on BookTok and so thankful I did because Shain sent me the ARC of this book (as well as Shattered Vows!) As much as I enjoyed Shattered Vows, this book was my favorite of the two! It was steamy and hot, while also giving you the super sweet moments of the brother's best friend/childhood crush tropes. Dante was a DREAM. I very much am manifesting him as my future husband because he was hot and somewhat morally-gray, while being the literally cutest human on the planet. Very big fan. This book covers some heavy subjects that I feel are super relatable to a lot of people, especially women (i.e. miscarriages) as well as things like heartbreak, anxiety, and depression. But it overall helped the characters become more relatable and I loved how their broken pieces just fit each other so well. Their romance had all the tension and heat, while giving you some tiny swoonworthy moments between the couple. Just one thing strikes my mind all through this book, why did he choose this life of frugality when he could be heading some corporate firm and earning large sums? Why did he work tirelessly for the Dalits, tribal and jeopardized his health whereas he could be sitting comfortably in an air-conditioned office?Review: Fractured Freedom - A Prison Memoir by Kobad Ghandy".

A war hero.” I wonder about the psychology of a person who has studied from Doon School followed by education from London and landing up in Tihar Jail. Kobad Ghandy is a Parsi intellectual who worked tirelessly for the underprivileged of the society for four decades. Delilah had eventually ghosted Dante much to his disappointment. She’d finished her degree and was currently nursing in Puerto Rico. Her twin sister was hooked on drugs and was currently in juvie at the time she left, leaving behind a much calmer atmosphere.

The Wire (in Marathi). 16 January 2022. Archived from the original on 21 December 2022 . Retrieved 21 December 2022.The book is poorly written both in form and substance. Filled with regret and self-pity, it is with repetitive lament that Ghandy spent 10 years in prison. As a prison memoir, this is of very low quality. A better one on prison conditions in India is "My years in an Indian Prison" by Mary Tyler. As a revolutionary memoir, probably the best is the "Notes from the Gallows" by Julius Fucik, the Czech socialist who wrote from a Nazi prison.

A new democratic revolution should be the focus of the revolutionary class.

Kobad Ghandy's writing met with critical acclaim. Mahmood Farooqui of Hindustan Times wrote "The importance of this memoir and of being Kobad lies in shedding privilege, in adopting poverty and struggle, in choosing the right life, in suffering wrongs for it, and yet remaining steadfast.Fractured Freedomis a moral lesson for modern India, which both the Left and the Right would do well to heed". [3] Asim Ali of The Telegraph wrote "This is a sincere and lucid book, mercifully free of intellectual jargon or literary pretensions. It is also deeply moving at times, particularly when Ghandy writes about his wife. Whatever one makes of Ghandy's ideas, there are some important insights to be gleaned from his dramatic life". [4] Marathi Version [ edit ] Born in the cradle of upper-middle-class privilege in a Mumbai Parsi household and educated at one of India’s finest schools, Kobad Ghandy’s life and career could have scaled heights in the bustling world of corporate finance. Only it did not. Instead, he chose to become an activist working for the oppressed of the country. A great read about the Judicial / jail system and tmhis view on present condition of Communism. Please note, Reading this book certainly doesn't make one a Communist.This book is a memoir(prison) of his journey from being a privileged Parsi youth and finally spending ten years in the Indian jails (specifically seven years in Tihar Jail). He discusses the judiciary challenges, his encounter with other prison mates which includes Khalistan leaders, Islamists, and the famous Afzal Guru. There are many times when he quotes Albert Camus, Rumi, Shakespeare.
