Overview
In this eclectic and deeply personal collection, India's grand old man of letters brings together precepts, prayers and practical advice by prophets, poets and philosophers, and his favourite passages from the seminal texts of the world's major faiths. The Bible and the Granth Sahib speak to us from these pages, as do the Quran and the Vedas. The songs of mystics and saints like Kabir, Rumi and Teresa of vila mix with the verse of poets like Ghalib, Tagore and Keats. In the final section, Khushwant Singh shares some of his own life codes and those of the rebels and mavericks he most admires. Full of spirit, wit and good sense and as free of humbug as the man himself-this is a book of inspiration, comfort and entertainment for every discerning reader. Key Features Collected over the course of lifetime, this book offers words and ideas that have influenced Khushwant Singh, arguably India's greatest living writer. Derived from a variety of sources, this selection is secular, diverse and inspiring. An exquisite cover and the beautiful quotes make this book an ideal gift for all seasons.
