'Every person has a story. That story will often feature a village and in that village, a
home. My story, being no different, starts with my village, Chamtha...[which] stands
at the sangam-the confluence-of four districts: Patna, Samasthipur, Begusarai and
Vaishali.'
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 tradition
and modernity; of formal education and lessons learnt through encounters
with the diverse worlds of Bihar and India; of professional commitment and
personal conviction; of public service and private passions.Together with
fascinating insights about the challenges and satisfactions of governance and
development work, Singh also shares his experiences of travelling across India
and abroad; building one of the world's finest collections of rare plants; and-
his shining achievement-setting up the splendid Bihar Museum, a home for
both classical and contemporary South Asian art, which compares with the
best in the world.
This book is among the most engaging and unusual memoirs of a public
servant you will read.
