Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. There is a plethora of literature coming into the market each day. Unfortunately, most of these books do not take a close look at the events that have a substantial impact upon society and the socio-economic aspects of the country at large. "Mandal Diaries" can be called an aberration in…this respect, as it delves into contemporary and recent incidents. These incidents have been interwoven with fictional characters in a story frame, which have the potential of being emblazoned on the pages. The history of Indian politics during the 1980s fascinatingly unwinds before the reader as a similar socio-political scenario has replayed itself in the not so recent past. "Mandal Diaries" is a Part of a trilogy, after "Dilliz Boyz", and expounds upon the momentous events that rocked Delhi nearly four decades ago.
