- Description: "Chandernagor: A Burg Of The Moon" is an illustrated chronicle of the quaint yet historically rich city of Chandernagor. A former French colony, Chandernagor is not a popular site for enthusiasts of Indo-French architecture, festivals, cuisine and culture. The author masterfully captures this blended nature of the city, who, having grown up in Chandernagor, brings these abstractions to life through reminiscent words and lively images. The plot manoeuvres its way through the unique heritage of Chandernagor as a French colony to finally connect it to India's freedom movement while interspersed with trivia and childhood memories of the place. With an informative narrative that promises to keep the readers engrossed, the book is riveting, especially brought out on the occasion of India as Guest of Honour country at the Paris Book Festival, 2022.
