Give 'em Hell, Hari

by Ajay Singh

The war of Indian independence may have ended in 1947, but for a group of Indian journalists in an American news bureau in Delhi, it is still far from over 35 years later. Only Hari Rana, head of communications, aspiring reporter and unstoppable writer of letters on diverse subjects can bridge the gap between East and West. It's a mission that sends him to the heart of enemy to the United States itself. What he finds there sends him home a very changed man.

Reviews

[Rashad Raoufi]

a very insightful and poignant capturing of india in the very early 90s, and before the tiger it has gained now the explosion of hidu rsahtra and the milintany of hindu nationalism as opposed to the stark conrast of nehruvain seculraism. the rise and fall of the latter are brilliantly captured, very funny and enjoyable book.
