I think it is a remarkable story .... writing and unfolding was mediocre.....just wasn’t enamoured with the reading.

I really enjoyed the accounts of their protagonist's experience as a young child, at home in India, getting lost, and moving to Australia to be adopted. They were engaging and vivid experiences. However, I found his older accounts of searching for his hometown and family to be very drily written. I understand that the subject matter of pursuing the search may not be as exciting, but because so much time was dedicated to this content which I felt was rather bland, I felt it made the book less interesting. Either less focus on this, or ideally, more engaging writing for this portion would have improved the book. In any case, it's a fascinating personal account of an extraordinary life. 2.5 stars.
