'For me this book is about breaking silences, revealing stories that are difficult to tell and releasing buried traumas.'

'Madan Lal Dhingra’s story is an extraordinary one. And so is the way in which the story came to be told.'

'Two secret stories I was not sure if I was in entitled to and yet I inherited them. At the heart of both stories is violence – is that why they were silenced?'

Below is a conversation with award winning writer Kishwar Desai on the eve of publication:

[Leena Dhingra @LeenaDhingra4]

It's publication day for Exhumation: The life & death of Madan Lal Dhingra, on the anniversary of his execution in Pentonville Prison in 1909 & in 1947 the day the Radcliffe line partitioned the Punjab & made us refugees. Two traumas, long suppressed, exhumed in writing the book.
