Blogpost by Dhanu

Hello Bookarazziss!

Happy 74th Celebration of Independence Day šŸ‡®šŸ‡³

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.

šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ Midnight’s Children – Salman Rushdie
šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ Bharat The Man Who Built a Nation – Dr. Vineet Aggarwal
šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ The Hungry Tide – Amitav Ghosh
šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ Ponniyin Selvan – Kalki
šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ Mahabharata – William Buck
šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ The Kamba Ramayanam
šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ Ice-Candy Man – Bapsi Sidhwa
šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ Mari – Easterine Kire
šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ 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 HindšŸ‡®šŸ‡³
