Home Village: Scene Dosanjh and Jawaharlal Nehru

home village: As he recounts in this entertaining and deeply personal memoir, his own passion for social justice would eventually propel him from his home village to the upper echelons of the Canadian political scene, according to Vancouver Courier. Dosanjh has never shied away from controversy, even at risk to his personal safety. In rural Punjab, he grew up listening to debates between his father, a follower of Jawaharlal Nehru and the populist Indian National Congress, and his grandfather, a former Indian freedom fighter and socialist. He tells his story with characteristic frankness, whether he writing about the tumultuous nature of B.C. politics, the dangers of political extremism, the challenges of holding office or the divided experience of the immigrant. Journey After Midnight is a fascinating portrait of a global citizen and a very colourful life. Canada is Dosanjh chosen home, this book makes clear, but Indian remains in his soul.
