Crimson Spring: A Novel by Navtej SarnaMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
An engrossing narrative, part fictional, but based on historical fact – the despicable episode of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre and the subsequent brutalization of the populace of Punjab by the British.
The author succeeds in capturing the evocative beauty of rural Punjab, the ethos of Sikhism and valorous Sikhs and Punjabis, whilst describing the duplicity and tyranny of the colonial rule.
