Ahimsa by Supriya Kelkar(book review)
This is my second book review.
I just finished reading the book ‘ Ahimsa ‘ by Supriya Kelkar. This a historical fiction and briefly describes the Indian history through the eyes of a 9-year old girl named Anjali. Her mother worked for a British officer and then decided to join the ‘Quit India’ movement, going against Anjali. From interacting with the untouchables to cleaning her own waste, her mother even burned down their foreign made clothes and started wearing khadi. Anjali was astonished seeing all this. This was not the mother she knew! And to make matters worse, she even had a fight with her best friend. Will she join the freedom struggle with her mother? Will she ever get to meet her friend again? Read this amazing book to find out!
