description: Khushwant Singh has never been less than honest and, most importantly, has never talked down to his readers. His autobiography is of a piece with his life and work. He writes of leaders like Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, the terrorist Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, the talented and scandolous painter Amrita Shergil, and everyday people who became butchers during Partition, with the clarity and candour expected of him. Uncompromising, comic, often moving and always hugely readable, this book is a memoir worthy of one of the great icons of our time.
