The end of India
I thought the nation was coming to an end wrote Khushwant Singh, looking back on the violence of partition. He believed then, and for years afterwards, that he had seen the worst that India could do to herself. Over the last few years, however, he has had reason to feel that the worst, perhaps, is still to come. In this fierce, uncompromisng book he shows us what few of us wish to see: Why it is entirely likely that India will come undone in the foreseeable future.
