India’s 74th Celebration of Independence Day – Book Recommendations based on pre-modern India

Blogpost by Dhanu

Hello Bookarazziss!

Happy 74th Celebration of Independence Day 🇮🇳

Hope you all are doing well

I wish to spend the 75th Celebration of Independence day by taking part in the celebration at Wagah-Attari Border. The most fascinating place to visit, especially on this special occasion. Let’s hope my wish come true and this scenario will change soon.

Here I have come up with the some wonderful reads based on early India.

🇮🇳 Midnight’s Children – Salman Rushdie
🇮🇳 Bharat The Man Who Built a Nation – Dr. Vineet Aggarwal
🇮🇳 The Hungry Tide – Amitav Ghosh
🇮🇳 Ponniyin Selvan – Kalki
🇮🇳 Mahabharata – William Buck
🇮🇳 The Kamba Ramayanam
🇮🇳 Ice-Candy Man – Bapsi Sidhwa
🇮🇳 Mari – Easterine Kire
🇮🇳 Bharathipura – U R Ananthamurthy

Not any particular order!

Have you read any from the list? What is your first read based on India?

(Tell me in the comments)

I have read Mari, Ice-Candy Man and Bharat.
Midnight Children, Hungry Tide and Bharathipura are the one of my half read books (will complete it soon, hopefully). Ponniyin Selvan, Kamba Ramayanam, and Mahabharata are in TBR pile

Happy Reading!

Jai Hind🇮🇳
