Description
Dawn of Brahma's Day ' is the saga of a young boy whose life changes dramatically and irrevocably when China sends its first salvo across the Himalayas to settle sensitive border issues with its passive neighbor India. The novel is not so much about the war, China's imperialistic designs and India's weak-kneed response as it is about seemingly out of control events that have such far reaching effect on one's life. Gama, the young protagonist's life changes with the onset of the war by a quirk of fate. His English mother Phoebe with whom he was still tied by the umbilical cord walks out of the family with a grievously injured soldier who she was assigned to nurse back to life in the military hospital as a volunteer. As the boy grows up he garners enough self resilience to be the master of his own fate.
While China and India have come a long way since that fateful event in 1962 the story revives the seminal mood of that bygone era.
