Rumours abound as to what actually happened to the missing gold, and where it might be today. These include claims that it was seized by a renegade Panzer unit and hidden in the North African desert for reclamation after the war; that it was despatched to Germany as a gift for Hitler but never reached its destination; or that it was taken by Italian partisans who set sail for Corsica, where their boat mysteriously sank just offshore.

Book Synopsis Subhas Death That Wasn't by : A. K. Gandhi
Download or read book Subhas Death That Wasn't written by A. K. Gandhi and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2023-05-26 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In modern times, we have remained hooked to numerous mysteries that have kept people confounded; in most cases, the veracity of facts and arguments presented has been far from satisfactory. One of the most intriguing mysteries pertains to the death of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, the legendary leader whom all Indians adore so dearly; his survival or death remains completely shrouded in mystery. The present book does not limit itself to resolving this mystery in its unique way; it also lays bare the convictions and beliefs that have been associated with his life and decisions, in essence appearing equally mysterious as his death, including his relations with Gandhiji. To bring out the truth, it also convincingly deals with his survival theories, like that of Gumnami Baba in Faizabad (Ayodhya) and others. The book is also about the enduring rich legacy that this leader has left behind, helping people to be inspired by his mind-boggling adventures and thought-provoking ideas and how he lived and sacrificed for his ideals and freedom. This book is a humble tribute to the great soul with an insightful vision to resolve the mystery.

Download or read book Big British Bluff written by Subir and published by Ukiyoto Publishing. This book was released on with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, many Indians are unaware that World War II was once fought in India’s North-eastern region. The twin battles of Imphal and Kohima were so fierce that in 2013, a poll conducted in London recognized these as ‘Britain’s Greatest Battle.’ But, in the history of India’s independence movement, they have largely been eclipsed. While global historical accounts have framed them as a Japanese invasion of India, the truth is they were parts of India’s armed Liberation War against British colonial rule spearheaded by the Indian National Army under Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, with the audacious ambition of uprooting the British Raj from the soil of India. British Prime Minister Churchill knew it well. However, fearing a cascading effect resulting in a nationwide uprising in support of Bose’s Liberation Army, Churchill orchestrated a smear campaign to misrepresent this attack as a mere Japanese invasion rather than acknowledging its true nationalist origins. Against this backdrop, the story eruditely recounts the gamut of India’s major revolutionary movements culminating in the full-fledged Liberation War, which was played down and belittled by the conspiracies of the Allied forces of World War II to conceal it from becoming known to the world. The book highlights how British propagandists actively embarked on a vicious slander campaign against Subhas Bose to undermine India’s quest for freedom, deliberately seeking to camouflage the daring legacy of Subhas Bose and all others. Yet, in the final analysis, the story narrates how Netaji’s Liberation War subsequently forced the British to free India.
Book Synopsis The Rat Eater by : Anand Ranganathan
Download or read book The Rat Eater written by Anand Ranganathan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I was born on a bloody road. The blood was my mother's. My sisters couldn't find a midwife in time. There was no way my mother could get relief from the upper-caste well, and so they tell me, that my sisters ran to some puddles to fill their little mouths up and then ran back to where my mother was almost dying of pain and then spat out some water on her face and the rest down below on mine. That is how I came into this world.' Someone is disposing of politicians one by one. And the murderer has borrowed from the genius of Agatha Christie. When a local Mumbai politician is found wrapped in a plastic bag behind a park bench, the dashing and capable DIG Ajay Biswas is told to take over the case. Ajay arrives in Mumbai along with his wife Aparajita and soon discovers he is being misled by his Mumbai compatriots who are determined to save their own skin. Someone is deliberately providing false leads; his presence is not wanted. While in Mumbai, Ajay and Aparajita meet up with their old college friend Akhil Sukumar. Akhil and Aparajita have had a tortuous history, and it appears that the one-time lovers now want nothing more than to let bygones be bygones. Easier said. From the barren lands of rural India to the immaculate lawns of Cambridge, The Rat Eater is a book whose uninhibitedness may offend purists as it lays bare a few uncomfortable truths about India-a country entangled in a web of caste, corruption and cover-ups. The privileged flourish at the cost of the oppressed. The price has to be paid, and someone has decided that it needs to be paid in blood.

Book Synopsis Narcissistic Romanticism by : Piyush Rohankar
Download or read book Narcissistic Romanticism written by Piyush Rohankar and published by Notion Press. This book was released on with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This anthology of poems dive into the realms of dark mystic realism and celebrate the obsessive/possessive/compulsive passions that we all have but turn a blind eye to. Rohankar has imbibed a forcefulness that compels the reader to pause from the daily flux of chronos and inspect the dark revelry that unconsciously dictates and establishes the existing paradigms from an antithetical perspective. The poem abides to the Elioton soul of free verse while subtly flirting with the Edgarion scepticism and pessimistic mysticism. Many of the poems adhere to the classic medieval romanticism but at the same time they foray into projected narcissism. These poems then capitulate the projected narcissism within the framework of God complex within the personification of a woman who is adored, worshiped and glorified. Every verse brutally decimates the societal constructs and embraces one’s psyche with all pervasive absolute darkness. The mystic Sufi touch in the poems are not just borrowed principles but they reiterate the undercurrent of the fading reality of truth and increasing understanding of the absolute. Despite drawing so many parallels to the poems here and trying to summarise them in a verbalised manner, I would unflinchingly hold that this is impossible. The work stands on its own inexplicable organic unity and brings one closer to an intellectual orgasm and perhaps even absolute actualization of the prospects one dares not venture into. "
Download or read book Saint Hazel written by Piyush Rohankar and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05-24 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ROHANKAR is a compatriot, a companion and a connoisseur of a wide range of arts. The Poet envisions his emotions with great pizzazz and channels them through a variety of media. His mind churns out tunes of melancholy and echoes them on a pile of flat-woods. This book is an urn to the flowers growing out of ashes that were his days while cast away into the valley of Seytan disguised as a nymph. Temptation and devotion, emotional molestation and simplified perplexity, anxiety and sacrifice, helpless arrogance and selfless indulgence are all painted on hectares of cotton fields like blood rain. These are the themes laid down throughout the pages of this love note. Furthermore, the metaphorical range that this collection encompasses is staggering. It tends to delve into the darker corners of a readers mind. But, at the same time, it gives a clear sense of hope for hopeless romanticism. ROHANKAR succeeds in wandering off even beyond the horizon of his own unique visceral literary style. Going by the final set of wordplay, it is quite safe to assume that this convincing piece of work is just a verbal foreplay, a predecessor to, hopefully, a series of tributes to Nietzschean affirmation.
Book Synopsis A Bird from Afar by : Anshul Chaturvedi
Download or read book A Bird from Afar written by Anshul Chaturvedi and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Chaturvedi goes beyond the admiration and the controversy to chase down the mystique of the man Bose was ... A compelling read’ Pritish Nandy ‘Combines a sure grasp of history with an ability to convert little-known facts into a marvellous fictional page-turner’ Mihir Bose Nazi Germany, 1942. Stalingrad has fallen to the Axis powers after a bitter, brutal campaign; in North Africa, Field Marshal Rommel’s Afrika Korps has emerged victorious; Rangoon has been seized by the Japanese after their capture of Singapore. Amidst these developments, Indian nationalist leader Subhas Chandra Bose has been camped in wartime Berlin, since 1941, working furiously to build an army that will be able to march with him overland towards the Indian frontier. Bose is confronted with multiple dilemmas: in order to free India militarily from the clutches of the British empire, he must ally with Hitler’s forces, the Japanese army and Mussolini’s troops. And even if he succeeds, can a post-British India emerge as a single, united country? Set during a turbulent and complex time in our nation’s history, A Bird from Afar is an unforgettable tale of courage, resilience and Subhas Bose’s obsessive quest for Indian independence during the Second World War.

Book Synopsis Nehru and Bose by : Rudrangshu Mukherjee
Download or read book Nehru and Bose written by Rudrangshu Mukherjee and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Nobody has done more harm to me . . . than Jawaharlal Nehru,’ wrote Subhas Chandra Bose in 1939. Had relations between the two great nationalist leaders soured to the extent that Bose had begun to view Nehru as his enemy? But then, why did he name one of the regiments of the Indian National Army after Jawaharlal? And what prompted Nehru to weep when he heard of Bose’s untimely death in 1945, and to recount soon after, ‘I used to treat him as my younger brother’? Rudrangshu Mukherjee’s fascinating book traces the contours of a friendship that did not quite blossom as political ideologies diverged, and delineates the shadow that fell between them—for, Gandhi saw Nehru as his chosen heir and Bose as a prodigal son.
