About the Book:

The Oxford India Gandhi looks beyond the plaster-cast image of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, the Mahatma. Gandhi’s autobiography ends in the late 1920s, several historic years before his assassination in 1948. This book seeks to fill that void left by Gandhi himself. Edited by Gopalkrishna Gandhi, the book tells Gandhi’s story in his own words-the story of his life as he himself might have narrated it to a grandchild.

Soul Force: Valliamma Found Herself No Longer a Child, Not Yet a Woman, But an Activist

Written by: Suzanne Franco
Pages: 428 pages

Price: Rs. 390/-

Published by: Notion Press, Inc.

About the Book:

An exemplary biography on Valliamma Mudailar, a fierce soul who was martyred in the passive South African liberation struggle.

Unlike most teenagers her age, in the face of danger and adversity, Valliamma Mudliar, showed no sign of fear.

Under the hardship of white oppression in South Africa during the early 1900's,

Valliamma and her Satyagrahi sisters are desperate to carry out their mission as they bravely march along endless dirt roads, pressing on across forbidden provincial borders. The Regime's brutal and unforgiving law enforcement waiting for them - weapons in hand.

"Valliamma, you do not regret having gone to jail?" Mohandas Gandhi asked the ailing girl.
