Publisher's Summary

Khushwant Singh, a prominent Indian novelist and journalist, was born on 2 February 1915 in Hadali, in British India (now a part of Pakistan), and is famous for books like A History of the Sikhs, Train to Pakistan, Delhi: A Novel, Ranjit Singh: Maharaja of the Punjab and an autobiography, Truth, Love and a Little Malice. Famous for his uncensored depiction of Indian society in his writings, his abiding love for poetry and people, and his wit, Singh’s characters are always familiar, and his narratives are filled with satirical observations.  

Meri Duniya Mere Dost is a collection of Hindi translations of Singh’s writings that consists of personal notes, memoirs, articles, philosophical musings and some wit from this beloved author whose career has spanned multiple decades. The work consists of five sections, each dedicated to an aspect of Singh’s life, giving us a glimpse of his world, his memories, his thoughts, and his eccentricities. Starting with responding to some important events, debates and controversies around his life (Meri Duniya), Singh, in these five sections, takes us on a journey that involves him meeting some remarkable people with fascinating stories (‘Ye Kuch Log’), a country that is living both in its past and its present (‘Mera Desh’) and a contemplation on the true meaning of happiness, family, life and death (‘Jeene Ki Raah’), signing off with his trademark humour and a devil-may-care attitude (‘Kuch Hansi Mazaak’). Bringing together various aspects of his scandalous, entertaining and ever-intriguing life, this audiobook is the portrait of a man who has ‘Malice towards One and All’.

Please note: This audiobook is in Hindi.

Few topics were impressive. But not worth it

Struggled to finish. Elaborate personal bowel movement, could be shortened. Pakistan should be avoided. Rest OK

मेरी दुनिया मेरे दोस्त - शानदार पुस्तक

दोस्त-दुश्मन, जानने-पहचानने वाले, घटनाएं, अपने आस-पास के समाज की सोच और उसकी मंशाएं, यहां तक कि भवन, पेड़-पौधे, जीव-जन्तु कोई नहीं बच पाया खुशवंत सिंह की पैनी नज़र और तेज़-तर्रार कलम से। अपने जीवन में जो देखा, अनुभव किया, हरेक पर उनकी कुछ यादें और धारणाएं हैं जो इस अत्यंत रोचक पुस्तक मे प्रस्तुत हैं। जहां एक ओर मदर टेरेसा और डाकू फूलन देवी से मुलाकातों की दास्तान है, तो वहीं अपने शहर दिल्ली की शानदार इमारतों की बातें और देश में तेज़ी से बढ़ते ढोंगियों और पाखंडियों का खुलासा किया है। पढ़ना शुरू करें तो आप पन्ने पलटते ही जायेंगे... खुशवंत सिंह एक प्रख्यात पत्रकार, स्तंभकार और लेखक हैं और उनकी लेखन शैली पाठकों में खासी लोकप्रिय है।
