Book Summary
In a time when echoes of freedom have started reverberating through the streets of colonial India, The Zamindar, the Rebel and the Revolutionary unfolds as a saga of a Bengali Brahmin landlord family’s relentless pursuit of a sovereign India.
In the 1880s, Keshav, the zamindar of Madaripur, near Dhaka, challenges oppressive societal norms while wielding his printing press as a weapon to empower revolutionaries fighting for the nation. His son Mukund is determined to continue this legacy, but a treacherous marriage agreement forces him into the role of ghar jamai, shackling his ambitions.
Just as Mukund escapes his in-laws’ machinations, an attack on their estate threatens to obliterate everything they cherish. Undeterred, Mukund revives Keshav’s printing business to rebuild their lives and fuel the national cause.
In the early 20th century, Mukund’s son Aneek joins Calcutta’s underground armed movement, taking up the mantle of resistance.
Through this polyphonic narrative, Jyotiska Ganguly weaves together the lives of three generations of a family, exploring the enduring forces of love, resilience and revolution against a backdrop of violence, betrayal, caste prejudice and the fervent struggle for India’s independence.
