My Allahabad Story recollects the author's privileged childhood in a prominent family of the city he is obsessed with. He traces his growing years in the large middle class Kayastha family bringing out in amusing detail, some quaint social customs and traditions that existed half a century ago. The author wonderfully describes the changed complexion of the city with a tinge of despair. Life and times and what happened to Allahabad has been graphically described with nostalgia. An interesting account of an Irish resident brings out the social life that prevailed in Allahabad hundred years ago, interlaced beautifully between the English, Anglo-Indians and Indians.

Not all love stories are meant to have perfect endings. Not every love story even has an ending: be it bad or good. Some parents allow their children to marry whomever they want to. Some parents are ready to kill their children if they are so obsessed about someone. Welcome to I Live to Die with You, the story of Rohit and Anya, who are so involved with each other that they can’t let go of each other and are ready to die for each other. They aren’t yet married, but to them, marriage is not the only way for things to grow – and so, they remain together with a great sense of loyalty.

Caught by the Police is the story of a talented, public-spirited and erudite man, with a multidimensional personality, a republican bent of mind, Indian values and English sensibilities. After a brilliant academic career, he joined the Royal Air Force in 1934 at the age of 19; unfortunately, he was forced to leave on contrived medical grounds. He got into the Indian Police due to a providential combination of circumstances and events, somewhat against his inclination. But once in it, he gave his all to his profession. A brave and intrepid police officer, he went on to become a celebrated police historian. He also wrote spiritual poetry, which forms a part of the book and, interestingly, could recite Shakespeare, Ghalib and the Bhagvad Gita with equal facility. Spanning a century of changing times, this book provides a unique account of the last decades of British Rule and the emergence of a new India, woven into the story of an extraordinary life lived in ordinary places, and a compelling family chronicle.

Located At The Confluence Of The Ganga, Yamuna And The Invisible Saraswati, Allahabad, Or Godville The Babu Translation Of The Name That Mark Twain Came Across Has Been Frequented By Pilgrims For Two Thousand Years. However, It Was Only Towards The Latter Half Of The Nineteenth Century That Allahabad Shed Its Identity As Another Dusty North Indian Town And Emerged As One Of The Premier Cities Of The Raj And The Capital Of The North-West Provinces. This Metamorphosis, Ironically, Was Brought About By Colonial Rule, Whose Beginnings Fanny Parkes Has Described At Great Length. Allahabad Was The Home Not Only Of The Pioneer Newspaper, Where Kipling Was Employed, But Also Of Literary Figures Like Harivansh Rai Bachchan And Suryakant Tripathi Nirala . Its University, One Of The Oldest In The Country, Attracted Students From Far And Wide. Visited By The Buddhist Scholar Hsiuan Tsang In The Seventh Century, The City Is Today Visited By Spiritual Con Men And Con Women, As Well As Ordinary Pilgrims, Who Come To Attend The Magh And Kumbh Melas. As Kama Maclean S Essay Shows, Far From Being An Ancient Religious Festival, The Kumbh Mela, Which Is Held Every Twelve Years, Originated As Recently As The 1860S. Colonial Allahabad, Along With The Intellectual Energy That Colonialism Generated, Has All But Disappeared. The Bungalows Have Gone, And So Have The Last Of Those Who Inhabited Them. Their Descendants Can Only Recall A Lost Time. In 1824, Bishop Heber Wrote That Allahabad Was A Desolate And Ruinous Place. Three Years Later, Mirza Ghalib Compared It To Hell, Only Hell Was Better. But For Jawaharlal Nehru, Allahabad Was Where He Was Born And Where He Cut His Political Teeth; For Nayantara Sehgal, It Was A Model For Civilized Living; For Ved Mehta, It Was, Like Other Indian Cities, A Jumble Of British, Muslim, And Hindu Influences ; For Saeed Jaffrey, It Was A Place Where A Good Time Could Be Had, While One Picked Up A Decent Education; For Gyanranjan, It Was A City One Could Fall In Love With In One S Youth; And For I. Allan Sealy, It Was His Parents Home Town, A Reservoir Of Family Lore. The Last Bungalow: Writings On Allahabad Is A Memorial To A Now Forgotten City, Whose Rise Was As Meteoric As Its Fall.

‘I am tired and confused. I am surrounded by darkness, and am groping for the right path. Only you can take me to the light, but unless you love me body, mind and soul, it won’t work. Only you, loving me totally and unconditionally – physically, mentally and emotionally – will provide the magic balm. I can understand if you are tired, but I need your help, support and love. I am full of negativity, frustration and bitterness. Only your love can wash away this muck. Every time we make love, my anger, fear and confusion melt away, a bit at a time. Every time you hug and kiss me I feel wanted and special again. You are the balm to my tortured soul. Nothing else – family, career, drugs, money, films, friends or golf – can help me the way you can. I am wired to you. My life is in your hands, but do you want to help me anymore?’ A visceral, honest, deeply moving cry from the heart of a man dogged by misfortune and deemed unworthy of love.

Based on the experiments on reincarnation and children remembering their past life, it is believed that there is continuity of life after death. In order to explain, a model has been suggested in the book. It is further believed that the soul is not made of matter as we see everywhere. It is perhaps composed of very fine particles much shorter than atoms or even subatomic particles. Such a material has to be discovered. Techniques for detection of soul by scientific instruments have to be developed. The book has further described what a soul may be able to do or it may not be able to do. While the model solves many questions, it generates some questions that have to be solved. It is believed by the author that in the near future, most of these problems may be solved and scientific existence of soul may be confirmed. Second part of the book describes twelve stories on manifestation of soul.
