A fascinating insight into bygone times: Pradip Chanda’s memoirs are so much more than simply autobiographical. Glimpses of a post Partition Bengal, a Calcutta dealing with PTSD, and a childhood shaped by events beyond its ken - his experiences and perspectives offer us insights into an unknown and now almost forgotten world. “For the Culturally Curious, the Emotionally Brave” If you like books that make you feel, think, and laugh out loud at truths you didn’t expect, The Final Cut might just become your favourite discovery this year. A story that roams from post-independence India to Europe and Latin America, from racecourses to Board Rooms, from the sheer joy of living and loving to heart breaks! And along the way? Art, architecture, music, and society — all seen through a delightfully irreverent, sharply observant lens.
