Synopsis

The Rainbow, it is not the rainbow we see in the sky. The author experienced many ups and downs in his life which he described them as colours of the rainbow of life. The author nicely described the horror of the Second World War and the shocking consequences of communal riot during his adolescence he experienced. There are two items in this book which are worth reading. The first one was the journey from India to Italy by ship. The problems the author and five other co-passengers encountered during the journey and the hospitality they received from the captain of the ship. The second one is the journey from Munich to Genoa through the Alps The author has written this book in the form of a biography.
