About the book
"Lost spring" by "Anees jung" , it is an awesome explanation of stolen childhoods. The author fully got success to make a real picture of poverty also with mentality of a barefoot ragpicker boy is depicted preferably. The problems and way to living life by squatters which is discussed by author really compelled to think about it. Small dreams of "Saheb-e-Alam" inspire to living life by best way. The description of India's problems by two distinct worlds in author own language,- "one of the family , caught in a web of poverty , burdened by the stigma of caste in which they are born; the other a vicious circle of the sahukars, the middleman, the policeman, the keepers of law, the bureaucrats and the politicians. Together they have imposed the baggage on the child that he cannot put down. Before he is aware, he accepts it as naturally as his father" It's is really good.
