Today, when the existence of the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi, has been limited to just currency and photographs, Uttambhai has written this novel with the aim of re-establishing his values in society.
A staunch Gandhian gentleman living on the seashore of Dandi starts a story to instill Gandhian values in his grandson. Slowly, the village children and a young journalist eager to research the Dandi Satyagraha also join the story.
In the gentleman’s talks, the pre-independence Gandhian era comes to life, and the 11 vows like truth, non-violence, non-stealing, non-possession, celibacy and self-reliance, non-untouchability, fearlessness, Swadeshi, control of the palate, and equal respect for all religions are woven in. These great vows have a deep impact on society and the countrymen and become a path to ideal character building. The incidents and events in the story show the characters following Gandhian values, which makes the story more meaningful. At the same time, lesser-known stories from Bapu’s life make the story more interesting.
Written in a simple and natural style, this novel makes the Gandhian ideology and lifestyle relevant for today’s time and will be an inspiration for the new generation to understand and follow it.
