PRISON AND CHOCOLATE CAKE

by Nayantara Sahgal ‧ RELEASE DATE: May 3, 1954

The daughter of Mme. Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit affords a unique view of the leaders in India's campaign for freedom as she grew up in a household dedicated to liberty and non-violence. There are the intimate associations with Gandhi and Nehru; Tara's coming to the U.S. in 1943 to study at Wellesley; her return to a free India. Devotion to a country and a warm humor that bridges the way of the East to the West characterize this lovely book.
