    Founded centuries ago, this Hindu civilization struck deep roots and over time spread through the Indian subcontinent affecting every facet of life. This civilization has been anything but static. It has adapted itself to the changing needs of different social structures and has been enriched by the ceaseless flow of ideas. Although the basic ideological structure has remained constant, the ability to assimilate every new wave of thought has created an incredibly rich cultural texture impacting everything from social traditions to interpersonal relations. The omnipresent impact of this plural civilization with its strengths and weaknesses constantly enriches our lives. It is this enriching struggle that forms the canvas of `Hindu`. This novel captures the vastness and plurality of life much in the manner of an epic. A deeply satisfying read, the book, the first of a quartet leaves you thirsting for more.. The author of `Kosla`, `Bidar`, `Hool`, `Zharila` and ‘Zool’once again uses the form of the novel to great effect, inviting the reader to re-examine many aspects of life.

    It is unique in its setting, it is based on the concept of Arabian Nights, each story ends in the beginning of yet another story. Va Pu has handled novels and dramas; he also has handled the biography and autobiographical forms, yet his base is that of a story writer and to be precise that of a story-teller. His writing reaches its peak, is in full bloom, is in this form. His stories are always meaningful and sensitive. But when he presents them himself, then these stories appear to be full of feelings, freshness, energy and vibrancy. His unique presentation gives certain depths to many a words said, many a sentence presented; sometimes showing compassion, sometimes style, sometimes affections and sometimes melodrama. None of the characters are special or unique; they all are representatives of common men and women; yet it is his presentation that reveals the greatness of small people and meanness of great people. His writing has beauty, simplicity, flow and a prance.

    No less was the struggle of Indian manes against British rule and for freedom and liberation of the mother country. The author’s tribute to the martyrs and his letters to dear ones from Andamans, miscellaneous statements and writings are also included in this book. The first four epochs are covered in only hundred plus pages while the last two epochs span almost four hundred plus pages, signifying the importance that the author gave to this period.So far we have been given the picture of British rule, the history and politics in India by foreign and leftist writers, but in this book Veer Savarkar makes us look at the country’s history and politics from the Bharatiya perspective. Not only does he analyse the mistakes committed by Hindus since the time of Alexander’s invasion till the British rule, he tries to enlighten our minds with the prevalent situation in his time. All that he himself learnt from history, he tries to correct through this book of his.
