India First is an engaging and endearing collection of parables which weaves a rich tapestry of values so very relevant in the present times. A father whose love reaches out beyond boundaries, a modern day 'Kabir' who creates an indelible bond between warring communities, young minds who question adult prejudices, a monster turned messiah....you will find all these brilliantly etched out characters in the book. On the occasion of 75 years of Indian independence India First offers an eloquent tribute to the glorious heritage of peace and patriotism which the country stands for. In these fractured times when harmony is slowly morphing into intolerance and nationalism is becoming anachronistic, this book is a must read for the young.
