An entertaining read on the Partition. If one wonders whether a person can be patriotic when born affulent and educated abroad. Look no further than Nehru, a true patriot and an visionary reformer. The book also sheds new light on Lord Mountbatten. I, for one, was probably too critical on him being born into renown.

Mrs. Mountbatten富可敌国且和尼赫鲁互相倾慕；Mr. Mountbatten有个造皇帝的爱好，Mahatma不仅对自己要求高，也强迫四个孩子戒掉世俗欲望（虽然没一个能继承他的政治遗产），这是把一个个政治神话人物都掰开了给你看，以及他们如何在谈笑一念间决定了几百万人的命运的故事

挺有意思，没想到蒙巴顿的老婆和尼赫鲁还有这么多八卦。这本书的封面不地道啊，我要是印度人，看了肯定不高兴😠
