Synopsis "One Life Is Enough"

'Every person has a story. That story will often feature a village and in that village, ahome. My story, being no different, starts with my village, Chamtha...[which] standsat the sangam-the confluence-of four districts: Patna, Samasthipur, Begusarai andVaishali.'Anjani Kumar Singh's memoir begins with these lines. In the pages that follow, we witness a remarkable life unfolding-a life that is a'sangam' of traditionand modernity; of formal education and lessons learnt through encounterswith the diverse worlds of Bihar and India; of professional commitment andpersonal conviction; of public service and private passions.Together withfascinating insights about the challenges and satisfactions of governance anddevelopment work, Singh also shares his experiences of travelling across Indiaand abroad; building one of the world's finest collections of rare plants; and-his shining achievement-setting up the splendid Bihar Museum, a home forboth classical and contemporary South Asian art, which compares with thebest in the world.This book is among the most engaging and unusual memoirs of a publicservant you will read.
