Autobiography. Captures the chilling reality of a childhood spent playing with carcasses in a bonemeal factory, snatching coins from corpses in the cremation grounds, of being refused water at the village well and the various stages of a remarkable life. This autobiography reveals what modern India is like as it plunges along its path of economic growth.
