Diary of Manu Gandhi
1943-1944
«Tridip's effort at providing the English translation of Manu's diaries is praiseworthy. He has taken utmost care to remain faithful to the original meaning of the words while translating the Gujarati text to English. The translation does not omit anything from the source. The editorial notes provide the context as well as biographical details of persons mentioned in the diary. These notes help the reader to better understand the entries in the diary. Tridip's elaborate introduction of almost 50 pages is an indispensable tool to read the diaries of Manu and to broaden our understanding of Gandhi, albeit through the lenses of Manu Gandhi.»

The Diary of Manu Gandhi, is a collection of entries spanning two volumes. Written by a young Manubehn Gandhi, it is a record of her life and times with M.K Gandhi between the years 1943 and 48. Manu Gandhi joined Gandhi's entourage in 1943 as an aide to his ailing wife Kasturba in the Aga Khan Palace prison and remained with him and his family until his assassination. Through this period she recorded her experiences with M.K Gandhi through meticulous and intimate
entries in her diary. These diaries are unlike other diaries from Gandhi's companions in that they were shown to him daily and he signed on the entries to authenticate them. More than 60 years after his death, these diaries are now some of the most important accounts of his life, his ideology, his
popularity and his intimate relationships with his family, his physician, and his associates.
