Memoirs: Uneasy is the Life of the Mind

by Rajni Kothari

Rajni Kothari's Memoirs, which he calls the 'journey of my mind', is not an autobiography, yet it accommodates much more than that genre can offer. He tries to capture the idea of the nation as well as address a plethora of questions that have left his mind in a state of perennial unrest. This is a book on history - this is a book on politics - this is a book about how democracy can thrive. Yes, divergent ideas coalesce in Kothari's work. Simple and brilliant - like the man himself.
