Most essays in this anthology are prompted by current events: Sumanta Banerjee cannot help but lash out at the morass of injustice, falsity, authoritarianism, and illogic bordering on farce that presents itself in contemporary India and, indeed, the world. Yet, the political and cultural transformation of India in the past decade that is plain to both the astute and the guileless hardly leaves him despondent or speechless. He responds with sharp analysis rooted in fact. He pinpoints the ludicrous, argues with scholarship and, equally, points the way ahead. Above all, the rich history in these pages is a delight.
