Other than that, the book beautifully intertwines the struggles that the various minorities in India- gender minorities, religious minorities, caste minorities etc. have faced throughout the history of India and continue to face even today.
The parrelism between the various struggles of India, and the various struggles of the Indians often ignored and overlooked will almost well up your eyes at times, fill you with rage, with a longing for justice- but oftentimes the overly flamboyant descriptions suck the intensity out of those moments.
I am glad I picked this book up because it is informative and stirs your emotions, but i will also be honest, i almost gave up on this book many times.
