“The Prince among the revolutionaries” was how Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation described Subhashchandra Bose (1897-1945) fondly called Netaji. The struggle for freedom of India was a long one and Netaji was one of the great freedom fighters the country ever produced. Netaji was a brilliant student and his father wanted him to enter the prestigious Indian Civil Service (ICS). Though Netaji got through the ICS examination with flying colours, he refused to join it. He was soon drawn into the freedom movement which was being led by Mahatma Gandhi. Later in mid 1930s, the two had serious differences of opinion on the conduct of the movement. Netaji favoured an armed resistance. The British arrested him but he had a sensational escape from Kolkata and made his way through Russia, Germany to Japan. While in the Far East he mobilized what came to be known as the Indian National Army (INA). The INA marched upto the Eastern boundary of India. The military expedition received setback and came to an end with Netaji’s untimely death in an air accident and the fall of Japan in the Second World War. Netaji gives a close view of the rise of a leader who led an armed resistance against a mighty empire in the decisive stage of the Indian freedom movement. Netaji is as close to the heart of a nationalist Indian as Mahatma Gandhi is. His adage Jai Hind (Victory to India) has become a national slogan.

Karunashtaka is the story of the author’s mother. It renders a story of a woman from a middle class Brahmin family which lives in penury in rural Maharashtra. It is a large family: an old lady, the father whose earnings are meager, the mother, and eight children. The parents are unable to bring up all children and often take to sending some to either a home of charity or to other relatives. The abject poverty is worsened when the family is crushed under debt and sources of income dwindle. The family had also to bear the brunt of public anger following the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi by a Brahmin. While conditions improve as more members begin to earn, the woman now sees her husband and many of her children pass away. She puts up with the tragedy bravely but is dispirited from within. Karunashtaka may be seen as a form of an autobiographical novel. Thus it reflects a section of the society in twentieth century India, which lived in stringent conditions. One may also see in it the story of a mother anywhere at any time in the world, who faces similar hardships while raising her little ones.
He was born in an orphanage, was brought up in a remand home. He had no relations, no father, no mother, no caste, no religion, no culture, and no ancestry, nothing to claim him. He had no traditional markings to prove his being into existence. He was born with 'Name Not Known'. He had no name; he just had a number, just like the prisoners. His childhood was full of questions. His adolescence was spoiled, his youth was snubbed. When he grew into adulthood, his question also grew with him. These questions made him an adult. They shouldered his parenting. They taught him, they helped him to recover. Today, he is at such a stage where life unfolds beautifully in front of him. This is a story for those who have everything yet who do not stop complaining and are extremely incompetent.
The Mahabharata, the well known Indian epic, describes the power struggle between the Pandavas and the Kauravas. It is replete with stories of warriors of which Karna is one. He was born to Kunti, the mother of the Pandavas before her marriage. Scared of the stigma, she abandoned the new born who was brought up by a person whose standing in the social hierarchy was low. Karna was thus looked down upon and became a victim of circumstances. He failed to get education or enter a matrimonial alliance the way the children of the noble people did. He became a friend of Duryodhana, the prince of the Kauravas. However, when the battle for supremacy broke out between the two families, in spite of his valour, skill in archery, and deep knowledge of warfare, Karna was kept out of it due to his family status. He took over as the commander of the Kauravas when the force was depleted. He met his end without achieving neither victory for the Kauravas or fulfilling his personal desire of defeating Arjun, his arch enemy among the Pandavas. Mrityanjaya is about the brave and generous Karna who fought against his misfortunes throughout his life. He never got his due. His is an example of how misjudgment can render all the finer qualities of an individual futile.
This is a biographical novel on Shivaji Maharaj. This historical novel has created history in the world of literature and books. Shivaji Maharaj is the most worshipped person in Maharashtra. Every single household here knows Shivaji. He is the most respected and worshipped character. He was a dream come true. Shivaji was born as a Hindu but at such time when Hinduism was forgotten by the Hindus. In his novel Ranjit Desai - pictures Shivaji from his birth rather he starts with the days prior to his birth. Before writing this novel Desai has searched history, he has not left any stone unturned while doing so. Writing on Shivaji was a very difficult task. Shivaji had many qualities and the last 3-4 centuries have changed people's view about him. They have become more possessive about him adding unnecessarily and untruthfully to his qualities - considering him a god. On this background it was very difficult to portray Shivaji as perfect as possible Desai had realized his responsibility. He has pictured Shivaji meticulously in this novel. Religious but not superstitious, strict but not wicked, adventurous but not impetuous, practical but not aimless, realistic, visionary but not dreamy. Graceful but not prodigal. Desai has succeeded in highlighting Shivaji's human nature. His base was that of a human. He valued all, respected every religion. He was an expert commander. He awakened the love for motherland in the sleeping mind, of people. He ignited their confidence. While describing this, Desai has brought many of Shivaji's qualities into limelight. Shivaji was a noble king but he was a nobleman. He also had his own sufferings. He lost many, but his first preference was his motherland. As we go on reading we get involved in the book so much that we live each moment and when Desai ends the novel we feel that "WE' have lost Shivaji.
Tukyachee Avali (Wife of Tukaram) Tukaram is one of the greatest saints of Maharashtra, who continuously sang praises of the Lord through his devotional compositions. The personal life of the poet seer was sad. Economic hardship plagued him from the childhood and he never enjoyed marital bliss from his first wife. Avali was his second wife who fed up with Tukaram’s total indifference about his mundane duties as the head of the family always nagged him. She disliked and hated from the bottom of her heart Lord Vitthal, one of the gods from the Hindu pantheon Tukaram was fond of.In Marathi literature, plays and films, Avali has been portrayed as being someone who did not allow Tukaram to live in peace. One would feel that she is to Tukaram what Xantippe was to Socrates. Tukyachee Avali presents Avali as a loving wife who is aware how well respected her husband is in the society. She always stands by him in his difficult times. But it the caring mother in her who cannot put up with the suffering the family has to go through due to her husband. The display of conflict between the roles of the wife and the mother makes interesting reading. Incidentaly, Avali outlived Tukaram.
