The dialogue is as sharp, appealing, and funny as the films are known for, and are windows into character personality as well.” —The Beat

Book Description
The novel alludes to the role on her personal life played by the unprecedented bloodshed in the entire human history during the exodus of people from the newly created Pakistan to India, which was the result of the tragic partition of the country that accompanied independence from the British rule in August 1947. Indias non-violent freedom-struggle led by Mahatma Gandhi brought to the forefront many great national leaders. Among them, Sardar Patel, hailing from the state of Gujarat and free Indias first Home Minister, was aptly called the Iron-Man of India he is credited for a courageous and tactful unification of 565 princely states into the new Indian Republic. Narendra Modi, the present-day Chief Minister of Gujarat, is depicted in this novel as kind of a reincarnation of Patel, as he conducts a campaign as one of the prime ministerial candidate for the national election to be held in 2014. Modi lays bare the British-style divide-and-rule policy, vote-bank policy, and many other scandals of corruption under the presently ruling Congress Party. This novel tells the story of Kamala enmeshed with the story of the nation at large in a fast-moving tempo and is likely to become a unique literary creation of its kind. The writer has authored twenty books, and this novel is an extension of his earlier fiction called The Next Life, published in United States about a year ago. Naturally, many political episodes and undercurrents touching upon a number of other countries United States, Italy, Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Russia come to light. Thus, this novel is not only the recount of the struggle of an individual to win over odds of life and of her transformation, it is also a succinct record of the true happenings in India of yore as well as of India of today, intertwined in an absorbing tale of fiction and reality. Readers in India as well as elsewhere will find this story intriguing, moving, entertaining, and even inspiring.

Book Description
Mention the Winter Hill Gang and most people immediately think of James “Whitey” Bulger. But Bulger was not the founder of the gang. He was not even the second leader. That title belonged to Howard T. Winter. The gang, named after a Somerville, Massachusetts, neighborhood, came about during the late 1940s when a teenager from Somerville recruited a few of his friends to help pilfer some goods from the nearby Charlestown ship docks. The friends soon discovered how lucrative that could be. They were prepared to follow the lead of their pal in what became the Winter Hill Gang. The friend was Buddy McLean. Larry Leavitt states: “When I was a young boy, my father told me stories about Buddy McLean. I became fascinated with him. Years later, several books were published about Whitey Bulger and the Winter Hill Gang. There was never much written about Buddy, though I thought his story was much better. I mentioned the idea of writing a book about Buddy to my Dad. He said, ‘Absolutely, who better to write about.’ “Many of those with knowledge of Buddy passed away or refused to talk. Several people who agreed to meet with me demanded to remain anonymous. Sometimes they held back information, feeling like they would be breaking a code of silence. The folks who did agree to share what they knew of Buddy, provided an in-depth view of a man who stood at the forefront of a historic time in Boston crime.” During the 1950s and ‘60s, Buddy McLean had the reputation as the toughest man walking the streets of Boston. Hundreds challenged him. No one could take him. In the same time span, the young truck driver/longshoreman from Somerville began building a criminal enterprise. Years later, it became known as the Winter Hill Gang. In 1961, Buddy faced confrontation with the ruthless and violent McLaughlin brothers of nearby Charlestown. When he wouldn’t concede to them, a feud started. More than sixty people died. From those who knew Buddy McLean best, this is his life story.
