Book Summary

Becoming Indian: The Unfinished Revolution of Culture and Identity by Pavan K. Varma is a thought-provoking exploration of India's post-colonial identity crisis. In this follow-up to his earlier work, Being Indian, Varma delves into the deep-seated effects of British colonialism on the Indian psyche and how these influences persist even decades after independence. He argues that true freedom for India—and other formerly colonized nations—can only be achieved by reclaiming and revitalizing their indigenous cultural identities.
