Letters to Emilie Schenkl: 1934-1942

Sugata Bose (Editor) Subhas Chandra Bose (Author) Sisir Kumar Bose (Editor)

Synopsis Perhaps the least known aspect of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's many-sided personality was his love for Emilie Schenkl, his Austrian wife. Bose met Emilie Schenkl in June 1934 in Vienna, developed a close relationship during his forced European exile, secretly married her in December 1937, and had a daughter, Anita, in November 1942. This volume of Netaji's collected works illuminates the human and emotional aspects of his many splendoured life. One hundred and sixty-two of his letters, written between 1934 and 1942, are published in this volume, along with eighteen of Emilie Schenkl's letters that have survived.
