Sonia Gandhi Memoir 'Belonging' Set for November 10 Release Amid India Publishing Switch
· India · Times of India, Zee News, Hindustan Times
Congress leader Sonia Gandhi said her memoir 'Belonging: A Journey of Love' will be released globally on November 10 and predicted 'tamasha' after publication. The former Congress president told her new X followers that much of what has been written about her is 'exaggerated' or 'invented' and the book lets her set the record straight. HarperCollins India will publish the Indian edition after Penguin Random House India and Gandhi's representatives disagreed over editorial changes her team refused to accept. The memoir traces her life from post-war Italy through her marriage to former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi and the personal losses that shaped her decades in Indian public life. Gandhi acknowledged some readers may change their view of her while others may form a worse opinion. The international edition is being published by Alfred A. Knopf.
Why it matters
The memoir offers the first direct account from one of India's most influential political figures of the past three decades, potentially reshaping public understanding of the Congress party's leadership transition and the Gandhi family's role in Indian politics.
