In Lest We Forget, Junoon, author Pushpinder Sadana weaves a saga of history and family, three generations caught up in the upheavals of Indian Independence and Partition, and the madness called junoon. It shows the passions that caught hold of millions of people resulting in savagery and death. As families cling to each other, and love is sought and returned, lives and traditions are forever changed. In August 1947, fueled by avarice for land, Hindus and Muslims wielded religion as a weapon, cleaving their homeland into two nations: India and Pakistan. Twenty million people, Hindus, Sikhs, and Muslims uprooted, crossing the continent, and left behind two million dead, butchered and violated. This is Junoon - the insanity that tore a subcontinent apart.
