Obituaries..Death @ my doorstep


Death @ my doorstep sounds like a horror story with a sad ending..but when Khuswant Singh writes on death its a lil more better..on things like

1.Nearing Death

2.On the hit list

3.Life after death

4.From the death sentence to gallows

Its a lovely book and shows perspectives of people who knew death is @ their doorstep..

He writes about Zulfikar Ali's death sentence and his last feelings in the jail..he writes about the Amrita Shergill ( wht a bold women @ tat age..) ..also about Sanjay Gandhi..Chetan Anand..Nargis..etc. Read this one its a nice book.


N now am wondering waht it would like to be when u know Death is @ yur doorstep...I m honest..i don't want to arrive at tat situation..i wud love dying when i m fast asleep..painless ..death..no worries....

Hmm..so put yur thinkin hats and think waht wud u do if u knew 'Death's @ yus doorstep'
