The journalist and novelist Amandeep Sandhu writes a layered and extensive history of Punjab, based on three years of reporting across the state. He explores the crisis within Sikhism, the clampdown on dissent, recent protests over crop failures by farmer and worker unions, the ecological devastation brought on by the Green Revolution and the effects of over a decade of militancy on the state.
