A panoramic view of what India is and why it is so, this book draws together the stray threads of India’s apolitical populace and looks at what makes it tick. Summary Of The Book With corruption and political scandal running amuck in the nation, one cannot help but wonder where is everyone? Have all the voters fallen asleep on the job or has it suddenly been made illegal to be thinking human beings in a democracy? In a nation where the middle class is silent and inactive, it is only natural that corruption problems torment every step of progress. But one has to ask the bigger questions – what is wrong? Why is this happening everywhere? From the Himalayan slopes of Uttarakhand to the beaches of Kerala and Tamil Nadu, every educated Indian seems utterly apathetic towards anything to do with politics, in fact, politics is practically a curse word in India! A Life That You Knew…: Your Life, Your Story begins on a now well known month on India’s political calendar – August 2012, the month when Anna Hazare went on an indefinite fast in a bid to force the passing of the Lok Pal bill. Regardless of the outcome, this even shook India’s politics to its roots because for that brief period in Ramlila Ground, Delhi, Indians of every class and background stood to fight for what they believed in. This novel, however, does not glorify the Gandhian leader, but rather looks at what it did to the common man – how did they react and what did they do? This interesting piece of literature looks at what drew these vastly different people to that ground on the hot, humid Delhi month of August.
