We meet Ambedkar the lover of dogs and outsize fountain pens, proponent of sex education and contraception, anti-prohibitionist teetotaler and occasional cook. 'Salim Yusufji' was a schoolteacher for fifteen years, and has previously edited 'Ambedkar: The Attendant Details', a selection of reminiscences by people in close proximity to B.R.

His joys, humour, pursuits and social life.

It is a form that is acutely realist in its descriptions. Ambedkar: The Attendant Details by Salim Yusufji takes an intimate look at B R Ambedkar as a person. It is not quite satire because it does not mean to mock. There is a particular genre of Hindi literature that is hard to describe.

The aim here is to recover the ephemera that attended Ambedkar’s life and died with him-his pleasure in his library and book-collecting, his vein of gruff humour, the sensation of seeing him in the flesh for the first time, or of stepping out of a summer storm into his house and hearing him at practice on his violin. The novel is like a dark Raag Darbari (Shrilal Shukla’s 1968 novel) of Indian education. Ambedkar in his hours away from history and headlines. 200 This book is an attempt at intimacy with B.R.
