| 5. | Rajiv
Hardcover (214 pages) by Sonia Gandhi (Viking Adult)
This is a portrait of Rajiv Gandhi by the person who knew him best: his wife Sonia. It is in four parts: in the first, Sonia Gandhi reveals Rajiv through recollections and reflections; in the last, Rajiv discloses the essence of himself in a gallery of his own photographs. The biographical narrative in between progresses through pictures and extended captions, interweaving Rajiv's personal history with the milieu in which it unfolded. The text is written in the first person, wherever the author was present as a participant or a witness, but the voices of the protagonists are also heard in letters, speeches or interviews. The intimate world of Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi has been in the public domain through their published correspondence covering the period of India's struggle for independence. Since then, members of India's most prominent political family have been the subject of much discourse but have rarely spoken for themselves. In this book, Sonia Gandhi shares significant moments in the lives of the family and, with her perceptions and insights, illuminates Rajiv's inner universe of thought and feeling. Unpublished letters and photographs from her personal archives contribute to a textured portrait of characters and times in this story of conflicting identity and destiny.

| 7. | Triumph of Truth: Rajiv Gandhi Assassination-The Investigation
Hardcover (280 pages) by D. R. Kaarthikeyan (New Dawn Press)
The depth of the ethnic crisis in Sri Lanka and its repercussions in India are illuminated in this account of the investigation, pursuit, and trial of the daring suicide operatives of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam who assassinated the young, dynamic Indian leader Rajiv Gandhi. The meticulous inquiry into a special investigation team's efforts to uncover clues is followed by an account of the breathless search for the killers. The obstacles prosecutors overcame to try and convict the criminals reveal the legal challenges inherent in trying assassination cases. This enthralling history offers a critical testimony to how, even in a democracy, minority grievances must be confronted to curtail, or prevent, such violent acts.

| 8. | Rajiv's World: Photographs by Rajiv Gandhi
Hardcover (208 pages) by Rajiv Gandhi (Viking Adult)
Rajiv Gandhi was India's youngest-ever Prime Minister. However, few were aware that he was also an accomplished photographer. In this volume, Sonia Gandhi offers a brief but informative introduction explaining his photography in context and disclosing the significance it held for him. This book is also a portrait of him; it is one of which in a sense he is the author, since it is entirely composed of his photographs. The photographs in the book, most of which have never been published before, span almost four decades, from his childhood to his last year in office. They have been grouped under the broad themes of family, nature and people.
