<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>With a new introduction by Makarand R. Paranjape</p><br><p>The life of Mahatma Gandhi is the story of a legend. In <i>Mahatma Gandhi: The Great Indian Way</i>, Raja Rao upends the genre of the literary biography with inventive non-linear chronology, through dialogue and anecdote, situating the physical within the metaphysical, and with a text that is both retrospective and contemporary at the same time. By mapping genealogies and distilling them, Rao focuses on Gandhi's years in South Africa, the birth of non-violent resistance, and then moves into the epic freedom struggle in India, which brought Gandhi to worldwide renown in his own lifetime.</p><p>With an emphasis on the idea of dharma as a framework for Gandhism, both in South Africa and India, this is the story of the man as much as the Mahatma.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Raja Rao, a path-breaker of Indian writing in English, was born in Hassan, Mysore. He was awarded the Padma Vibhushan, the Sahitya Akademi Award and the Neustadt International Prize for Literature.
