He came out of the crisis as a young political star, dubbed by the BBC as 'India's most loved and loathed student'. This is his story—from his childhood in rural Bihar, college days in Patna, to his political coming of age in Delhi. And it is told in his extraordinary voice—colourful, witty, eloquent, and raw.

From Bihar to Tihar is the story of a young political star in the making and a rare window into the lives of small town young Indians and their aspirations.

The story of Kanhaiya’s incredible journey from a village school, his deepening involvement in student politics, his controversial arrest on charges of sedition and its aftermath.

“Bhagat Singh had said it is easy to kill individuals, but you cannot kill ideas. I don’t know where this fight of ours will take us, but I thought our ideas should be permanently etched in history as a book. I want to write about the inherent contradictions of Indian society through my personal experiences and to reveal the hopes, despair and struggles of the youth of this country,� says Kanhaiya Kumar.

“This will be a defining book of our times. Kanhaiya’s is a voice that everyone should hear and we at Juggernaut are very proud to bring it to the widest possible readership,� says Chiki Sarkar.]]> 200 Kanhaiya Kumar 8193237277 AnShu 0 to-read 3.91

Raghu likes to show that there is nothing remarkable about his life - loving middle-class parents, an elder brother he looks up to, and plans to study in an IIT. And that's how he wants things to seem - normal.

Deep down, however, the guilt of letting his closest friend drown in the school's swimming pool gnaws at him. And even as he punishes himself by hiding from the world and shying away from love and friendship, he feels drawn to the fascinating Brahmi - a girl quite like him, yet so different. No matter how hard Radhu tries not to, he begins to care ...

Then life throws him into the deep end and he has to face his worst fears.

Will love be strong enough to pull him out?

The Boy Who Loved , the first of a two-part romance, is warm and dark, edgy and quirky, wonderfully realistic and dangerously unreal.]]> 297 Durjoy Dutta 0143426575 AnShu 0 to-read 3.70 2019
