Fate Of Butterflies

About The Book

One of our most courageous and eloquent storytellers Nayantara Sahgal’s superb mastery over language and history make this bold new work a compelling story that is as disturbing as it is beautifully told.Prabhakar returning home one evening comes upon a corpse at a crossroads naked but for the skullcap on his head. Days later he listens to Katrina’s stark retelling of a gang rape in a village as chilling as only the account of a victim can be. And in a macabre sequence he finds his favourite dhaba no longer serves gular kebabs and rumali roti while Bonjour the fine dining restaurant run by a gay couple has been vandalised by goons.Casting a long shadow over it all is Mirajkar the ‘Master Mind’ brilliant policy maker and political theorist who is determined to rid the country of all elements alien to its culture—as he and his partymen perceive it.A professor of political science Prabhakar observes these occurrences with deepening concern. Is the theory he put forth in his book—that it is not the influence of those who preach goodness and compassion that prevails but the matter-of-factness of cruelty—playing out before him?In the midst of all this he meets Katrina beautiful half-Russian wearing the scars of a brutal incident as a badge of honour. Together they discover that even in times that are grim there is joy to be had.
