Description:

Nirad C. Chaudhuri, one of India's most contentious writers, was born in East Bengal on November 23rd, 1877 in Kishorganj. Raised in a highly intellectual family by a lawyer father and a Puritan mother, he was greatly influenced by them during his formative years. In his memoir, he provides a detailed account of his life, including his birthplace, his parents, and his various experiences and escapades. He also delves into topics such as the Indian renaissance, nationalism, and politics, while taking readers on a journey through the streets of Calcutta, where he resided for 32 years. Through his discussion of Indian history, Chaudhuri sees this book as a valuable contribution to contemporary historical discourse.
