This book is not just another biography of Gandhi. It is valuable because it offers us a French view and Jewish too perhaps, of a man who became a prophet in a blood-thirsty century. The book is further enriched by a discussion on Hindu mysticism and the concept of 'love' in Judaism. The author also looks at how Gandhi has played a major role on shaping French intellectuals such as Andre Malraux. At the end however, a central dilemma, and a painful one to the work, concerns Gandhi's silence on the Holocaust.
