review 1: The Red Sari,By Javier Moro,Read September 12th 2014 This is the fictionalised biography of Sonia Gandhi, the leader of the Congress Political Party in India today. Mrs. Gandhi is suing the author, Javier Moro, for defamation in writing this book; it is banned in India. I happen to work in India and it is of particular interest to me. I admit the story and the details are fiction, however the core element of the book is real. Sonia Maino was a simple Italian teenager when she went to Cambridge to study English. There she met Rajiv Gandhi. She married Rajiv, came to India and lived in the extended family of Indira Gandhi (Prime Minister) and had two children. I thought this was an impressive book, a story of destiny and how Sonia Gandhi and her husband changed India. I... more enjoyed the glimpse into the world of the Gandhi family and the history lessons of India. I particularly read with great interest the references to Mr Modi, who is the present Prime Minister. I would recommend this book to readers of historical fiction as it is very well researched and cited. I award this book 5 stars.
review 2: Preporuka ako trazite knjigu da vas provoza i potpuno uvuce u sebe. Nije poseban kvalitet u pitanju ali sasvim lep stil i dobro vodjena prica uz koju mozete proveriti da li ste i dalje u stanju da se rasplacete zbog likova koje ne poznajete (ali makar nisu pisceva fikcija). Savetujem i da se ne jedite sto su Indira i Sonja imale odnos kao majka i cerka, realno koliko nas ima svekrvu tog kalibra (dok sve one imaju snaje ravne Sonji :D) I jos jedno zapazanje - kako je Raul Gandi dobar frajer :) less
