The dawn of India’s freedom was stained by the Partition and its accompanying violence which rent the subcontinent. Seventy years later, the nations that came into being are yet to fully overcome a persistent sense of anger and loss. The five iconic books in this collection look at the different faces of Partition, from the larger political and historical view to the very personal tales of hatred, grief, courage and friendship. Together, they commemorate one of the most defining moments of our history whose reverberations are felt to this day.
