The Sun of Freedom

Description

The sun of freedom depicts the colonial conflict between bhaskararao Bhave and the authorities of the British East India Company around 1858. A great lover of freedom and self-respect, he never yielded to the pressures of the British government, but fought his way by mobilizing the opinion of other co-fighters. Though betrayed by his own Kinsmen, he never lost his self-confidence, but upheld the ideal of freedom. The novel is easily comparable to chinua achebe’s things fall apart and Manohar malgonkar’s distant drum.
