Shain Rose is an author of Contemporary Romance and New Adult novels. She fights for love one word a time. Those happily ever afters can be difficult to get to sometimes! I loved Dante and Delilah. They were just the right amount of push and pull for me. They had chemistry, a history, angst. And Shain delivered the STEAM! I was obsessed with some of Dante's moves ;-)him. “Don’t you ever say that being in the military is killing. That’s being a patriot. A war hero.” Read an excerpt from Kobad Ghandy's Fractured Freedom, a stirring narrative of his activism and incarceration". Firstpost. 22 March 2021. Archived from the original on 21 December 2022 . Retrieved 21 December 2022. Need to think if any prisoners are thinking or attuned to the fact that court procedures are going to take long time means we all have to think about Indian judicial system. What really sealed the deal for me was that he lied to the FMC about various things but when she finally admits to the pregnancy and loss of the baby that she has basically told no one about he gets pissy with her? And she’s sitting there sobbing about this super emotional thing that she’s kept bottled up and has been dealing with all by herself and he starts talking about how he’s “always thinking about how to get people to submit” to him? Yeah… that’s totally the correct way to handle a situation like that…

Ghandy’s prison diary reads like a diary - and that’s both interesting and leaves something to be desired. 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? I didnt connect to or like the characters and struggled to read it, eventually abandoning it at around 40%. I feel so bad because I rarely DNF, but this was hurting my brain and Im too tired to torture myself like this.Fair enough. None of us wanted blood on our hands anymore. Bastian had started a new reign. We were done with the bullshit our fathers had done before. We wanted a clean family, legal business, and a government we worked with, not against.” Jawaharlal Nehru spent 17 years in prisons and Nelson Mandela 29. Of course, prison changed both of them. 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. 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".

Not to mention the fact that he was apparently in the military but is now working in a private contract with the government but is also the son of a major mob boss who no one knows he’s related to? Again… sure…The books that are born out of experience always are worth a treasure. They show life and real things. Fractured Freedom by Kobad Ghandy is one such book. Kobad Ghandy was born into a well-off family. He did his schooling at the famous Doon School, and after completing his college education from St. Xavier College, Mumbai, he went to the UK to do his CA. Unfortunately, he was a victim of racism that was the most prevalent in the 1970s in Europe. He wanted to know the causes of racial discrimination and read extensively on India’s colonial legacy from the books by BC Dutt, Dadabhai Naoroji and others at the British Museum Library. He realised the socio-political issues that complemented colonial rule. Interesting because it’s a no frills narrative… sounds very authentic. I’ve never heard Ghandy speak but I “heard” his voice as I read Fractured Freedom. Delilah is a sassy, smart, and smart woman. On the next journey of her life. But at the same time, struggling with past demons. Dirty, Delicious Dante is possessive, protective, and swoon-worthy.

I received this ARC yesterday or the day before and I'm already done with the book. That says a lot :-)Why I am a communist: Activist Kobad Ghandy on ideology and Utopia". Scroll.in. 30 March 2021. Archived from the original on 21 December 2022 . Retrieved 21 December 2022. OMG I’m screaming and crying and might even throw up a little because Declan and Everly are LIVE! Between Commitment and Betrayal is FREE in KU NOW!! And they are delivering angst, heartache, and steam💙 Throw in a twist where he's not just Army, he's a mobster too and her twin sister is working undercover with him. Cause that's what mobsters do. They work undercover stings to bring down drug operations. This book is a MESS. 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.
