Scars Of 1947: Real Partition Stories by Rajeev Shukla

3.0

The books is written in such a manner that it is so easy to read but somehow it feels like the author focused on the stories of his influential people. The book is definitely informative but i guess it took a biased tone. It is mentioned in the blurb that he is focusing on the people who passed through the hell of a partition and yet found a foot and established a livelihood. But as we read through the lines we feel some weirdness like the author is trying so hard to prove some unnecessary points. What's lost is lost and what people had to face is horrible even if they are able to build a successful life after but the way it was written at time, like 3-4 times, felt superficial.
