Born in Punjab's Hadali village (now in Pakistan) in 1915, Khushwant Singh has acquired an iconic stature: he is, arguably, India's best-known and most widely read author, columnist and journalist. He was founder-editor of Yojana and editor of The Illustrated Weekly of India, National Herald and the Hindustan Times. His first book, The Mark of Vishnu and Other Stories, was published in 1950 and he has published several acclaimed and bestselling books of fiction and non-fiction in the six decades since. The best known among these are the novels Train to Pakistan, I Shall Not Hear the Nightingale and Delhi, his autobiography, Truth, Love and a Little Malice and the two-volume A History of the Sikhs. He has also translated the work of major Urdu and Punjabi poets, novelists and short-story writers.
Mending Souls is a fascinating and insightful biography on Ratanjit Singh Sondhe whose versatility as a speaker, writer, consultant, entrepreneur, radio and television personality is the reflection of a magnetic personality. His life story, intertwined as it is with the Sikh message of Oneness, provides an inspiring account of his success in balancing materialism and spirituality.
