India is a country obsessed by politics. In early 2019, it faces national elections, and urgent questions present themselves: will India continue down a path of populism and increasingly strident Hindu nationalism or will it return to its postcolonial secular vision? Is the long-promised economic boom finally at hand, or is some form of socialism part of India's DNA? Will the seemingly invincible Modi triumph again, or will India revert to its habit of throwing out incumbents? Best-selling author Ruchir Sharma has been on the road during Indian elections for twenty-five years and here distills the wisdom of his observations and experiences over that time in a deeply insightful book about the world's largest and most complex exercise in democracy. |

Review<br/><br/>Reading this book helps in setting the mood for the upcoming 2019 polls. The author,along with many other "limousine liberals" have covered elections across India (or many parts of it) for the past 20 years. This has been turned into highly readable reportage over 350 odd pages. |
