Jatrapala by Ullas Mallick [Hardcover]

"The world's largest democratic country! Our cherished and proud democracy! A group of people, victorious by the vote of the citizens, takes the reins of power. The opposition stands on the other side. Yet, at some point, democracy seems to transform into a circus. The trapeze act—it's hard to tell who is holding whose hand or leg while hanging mid-air. Then there's the circus beauty, spreading the enchanting allure of her charm all around. In the end, the common people are left with nothing. All these elements have been portrayed with a satirical twist in this novel.
