150+ Nominations. Ten books Longlist. One prize. INR 15 lakhs.
Announcing the Longlist for the 9th Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay NIF Book Prize, honouring the finest non-fiction on Independent India’s history.
From the making of the Constitution to the partition of a subcontinent, ’s development to the rise of its scam economy, from the life of a diplomat who shaped the Republic’s foreign policy to a diaspora's resistance to the Emergency, from the lives of migrant workers in a Delhi factory to a hidden maestro of Hindustani music, from questions of justice in the Republic to a personal history of the nation, these books reckon with the India we live in today.

'Sinha trained in conservation and literature.. Both show up in the writing, sometimes in the same paragraph...the personal material deepens the ecological writing rather than competing with it.'
So grateful for this wonderful, wise review in @Openthemag of WILD CAPITAL, which identifies not just the writing but also the themes of the book.
