Rarely has a book left me breathless with its command of language and subject. Rarely does a book bring to mind a line of a Hindi film song:   Saara pyaar tumhara…maine bandh liya hai anchal main….All your love have I bound up in my veil… Bena's Summer  is a paean to love  ­ and a grand riposte to our hate-filled times. It’s really a mystery why this cracker of a book has not yet got even a look-in at book awards. It deserves to be feted on every platform for the depth of thought, the riveting word images, the felicity of language, the vivid descriptions of place and time.
