Description
At the stroke of midnight, a nation was born. Saleem Sinai, one of 1,001 children born in the same instant, is destined for a life of extraordinary connection to his country. A mix-up at birth has linked him to his motherland in ways both remarkable and ominous. As India takes its first steps into independence, Saleem's life becomes inextricably entwined with the course of his nation's history. This is a story of the power of the human spirit, and the weight of destiny.
