Basically a historical fiction with legal connotations, "Bridging
Souls -A Journey From Mahabharata to Bharata", authored by Shri Arindam
Nath,a senior Police Officer has earned rave reviews from different corners.
Even critical acclaims too. It was an experience of sorts when I was going
through it. History.......Crime....Contemporaneity .........Nostalgia......all
meandering, all permeating !!! Delicate issues like Maoist Movement, Gorkha
Land agitation & activities of PWG have been delineated in a lucid and
comprehensive manner. A vibrant attempt has been made to analyze & decipher
the nuances of legal aspects of innumerable heinous crime committed in the
historic era through the scanner of prevailing provisions. A cerebral and
nonconformist interpretation of Mahabharata makes the book, in the form of
travelogue, more engrossing. The writer's honest endeavour through the prism of
a police officer as well as a sensitive human being is evident throughout the
journey of reading the book. It was a pleasant journey because sailing was so
smooth !!!!! Enjoyed it out & out.
