Book description
If there's anyone who's been around, seen it all and lived life to the
hilt, it has to be Khushwant Singh. India's most popular and prolific
writer has, over the years, enlightened and outraged in equal measure,
and enriched our lives with his humour, his honesty and his sharp
insights and observations. In Khushwantnama, the 98-year-old reflects on
a life lived fully and the lessons it has taught him. Here is his
distilled wisdom on subjects as diverse as old age and the fear of
death; on the joy of sex, the pleasures of poetry and the importance of
laughter; on how to cope with retirement and live a long, happy and
healthy life. Here, too, are his reflections on politics, politicians
and the future of India; on what it takes to be a writer; and on what
religion means to him.
