Joseph Lelyveld's controversial book on Mahatma Gandhi, Great soul: Mahatma Gandhi and his struggle with India, will be available in India later this month and the author is hopeful that the storm over his work would subside.
The book will be published in India “within less than three weeks” and will be widely available in the country, he said.
The Pulitzer prize-winning author said while he currently has no plans to visit India, he “will be interested” in visiting “if I am invited.”
‘Book will remain'
“Those who are interested will read it. This sort of tempest will pass and be forgotten and the book will remain. So I am not particularly worried about it,” Mr. Lelyveld said.
