Modiplomacy is a unique work of contemporary history where the author has created a new genre of political commentary, making a blend of instant assessments as the events occurred and considered observations as they resonated in India and abroad. The author has presented Narendra Modi's brand of diplomacy through a Shakesperean prism where the hero's role is dictated not only by his sterling qualities but also by his tragic flaws and circumstances which go beyond his control. Objectivity, without a trace of prejudice or hero worship, is the hallmark of the work. T.P. Sreenivasan is a seasoned diplomat and a gifted writer and scholar.
