The Accidental Prime Minister by Sanjaya Baru

When The Accidental Prime Minister was published in 2014, it created a storm and became the publishing sensation of the year. The Prime Minister's Office called the book a work of 'fiction', the press hailed it as a revelatory account of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's first term in the UPA. Written by Singh's media adviser and trusted aide, the book describes Singh's often troubled relations with his ministers, his cautious equation with Sonia Gandhi and how he handled the big crises from managing the Left to pushing through the nuclear deal. Insightful, acute and packed with political anecdotes, The Accidental Prime Minister is one of the great insider accounts of Indian political life.

Sanjaya Baru is the Director for Geoeconomics and Strategy at the IISS and an Honorary Senior Fellow at the New Delhi-based Centre for Policy Research. Suvi Dogra works at the IISS's Geo-Economics and Strategy Programme as a Research and Liaison Officer.
