The Father and the Assassin

The Father and the Assassin

Work:: The Father and the Assassin (S01368469357)

The story of the man who murdered Gandhi. Nathuram Godse: journalist, patriot, murderer. The Father and the Assassin is a gripping new play that traces Godse's life over 30 years during India's fight for independence: from devout follower of Mahatma Gandhi, through to his radicalisation and their tragic final encounter.
Author Anupama Chandrasekhar
