Britain's withdrawal from India in 1947 unexpectedly plunged the country into the chaos of becoming an autonomous nation. And the victory of independence, so sweet at first, has led the country down a twisted road, where corrupt politician and religious zealots exist alongside successful agricultural reform policies and the largest middle class in the world. In Of Dreams and Demons, Patwant Singh unravels the last six decades of India's complex evolution as he examines the forces that have led to his country's current situation.
