Facade of Myths by Amit Sarkar is the latest book by Dr. Amit Sarkar. Available at Amazon.com and online The Book has been reviewed: Reviewed as Clarion Review AUTOBIOGRAPHY & MEMOIR Facade of Myths Amit Sarkar CreateSpace 978-1-4782-6902-1 "Myths are unreal renditions of social situations of the past," writes Amit Sarkar in his memoir Facade of Myths. "They are like potent fantasies that tend to lend credence to absurdity." Facade of Myths is a single garment woven of three strands. The first is an episodic memoir that begins with the author growing up as a schoolboy in wartime British India. Snippets of family and student life offer a unique picture of a nation and a people in transition from colonial rule to independence. The second strand is a history of India before, during, and after the British. Amit Sarkar focuses much of that story on the evils of partition, problems that continue to plague the subcontinent to this day. As a government secretary in the troubled Mizoram region, Sarkar deals with such issues daily and personally, witnessing riots and the assassination of three of his colleagues. Sarkar's writing is rich and personal, and the selected episodes of the author's life are filled with humorous and touching anecdotes. There is also a sweet story of a love that is never meant to be fulfilled, and which half a century later obviously still haunts the author in a gentle, warming wonder of what could have been. Facade of Myths is well written in English.
