About the Book

Santosh Bakaya is the first of Gandhi’s innumerable biographers to envision his life as a poetic saga. In the Ballad of Bapu, she has produced a tour de force that spans his life, including many little- known episodes. Her exuberant language brings Gandhi’s spirit vividly to life like never before, and explores the varied potential of Indian English beautifully. We get the full flavour of how the ordinary human being, Gandhi, with his extraordinary nonviolent ways, helped to create a great India; a shining example for the world to follow.
