Savarkar

“He stood alone, unbent, unafraid.”
That’s Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, a man who continues to ignite debates and admiration alike.

Savarkar by Vikram Sampath is a powerful, extensively researched biography that charts the life of one of India’s most influential and controversial freedom fighters. Far from a one-dimensional figure, Savarkar was a revolutionary, poet, political philosopher, and social reformer—complex and compelling.

The book takes you through his early years as a fiery youth inspired by revolution, his daring escape to England, and the dramatic events that led to his imprisonment in the infamous Cellular Jail in the Andamans. But it doesn't stop there. Sampath also dives deep into Savarkar’s ideological evolution—his stance on Hindutva, nationalism, and his views on religion, caste, and reform.
