The short march in Telangana

Michel Larneuil

4.9/5 (17121 ratings)

Description:Journalist David Emerson, ""Too old for khaki shorts and tropical helmets,"" a soft, self-indulgent, ill-tempered and used man of fifty-odd, is assigned to cover a rebellion in an Indian backwater, Telengana. Communist-led by an ""eel,"" a ""phantom"" Akerkar, it is the first act of the Indian revolution and with Akerkar is the son of a former leader, the Gandhian Ghosh. The forced march, in which Emerson is Akerkar's captive, is brutalizing in its revelations of poverty, disease and attrition finally and appallingly epitomized in a leprosarium. . . . Throughout Mr. Larneuil makes use of contrasts, particularly the older quietist versus newer activist directions in India as well as the awakening of conscience in his indifferent, sybaritic Emerson. This perhaps carried too far as Emerson walks back to his old life clutching the infant of a dying woman. But there are occasional striking moments in the somber, purgative journey.
