Journal Entry 1 by Shahrun from Dagenham, Essex United Kingdom on Tuesday, January 7, 2020
What an extraordinary story! I was fascinated with the vivid memories of his childhood in India, particularly when he was lost. Then the comparison of growing up in Australia and the opportunities that afforded him (that he would t have had in India - like education). But the most amazing bit was how he traced his roots and then found his Indian family! It did strike me that his two families compliment each other perfectly, almost like it was destiny.

I offered this up to my husband and he couldn't resist...

Journal Entry 7 by wingETMadridwing at Rotherhithe, Greater London United Kingdom on Wednesday, March 18, 2020
This has come back to me - my husband literally couldn't put it down and stayed up into the night reading it. A nightmarish, tragic scenario he says, hauntingly told, that reminded him of Doctor Zhivago, a tale of lost opportunity.

And now I hope to read it too at some stage.

Journal Entry 8 by Ladybeatlebird at Cambridge, Cambridgeshire United Kingdom on Friday, June 2, 2023
Was given this book by ETMadrid and it has been sitting on my shelves for years. Finally when I took it off the shelf- I read it in a couple of days- a gripping story and so well written that was very surprised that there was no ghost writer.
