{"product_id":"emergency-coomi-kapoor-9780143426134","title":"The Emergency: A Personal History","description":"A searing indictment of the suspension of democracy. In June 1975, a state of Emergency was declared, where civil liberties were suspended and the press muzzled. In the dark days that followed, Coomi Kapoor, then a young journalist, personally experienced the full fury of the establishment. Meanwhile, Indira Gandhi, her son Sanjay and his coterie unleashed a reign of terror that saw forced sterilizations, brutal evictions in the thousands and wanton imprisonment of many, including Opposition leaders. This gripping eyewitness account vividly recreates the drama, the horror, as well as the heroism of a few during those nineteen months when democracy was derailed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Coomi Kapoor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0143426133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143426134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books India\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.72h x 5.12w x 1.10d","brand":"Coomi Kapoor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075964104959,"sku":"9780143426134","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1aa163ec-3952-4175-b1ab-61dced7412cb.jpg?v=1685462427","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/emergency-coomi-kapoor-9780143426134","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
