It includes his greatest triumph: winning the hathornden Prize as a nineteen-year-old poet at Oxford, and becoming the toast of literary England. Looking back at the years that follow, Moraes tells of his marriage to the beautiful actress Leela Naidu, of his songs childhood, his increasing fame as a writer and his experiences as a journalist that took him to places as farflung as Bhutan, Chile, Vietnam, Israel and zaire. Every place he visited and every relationship he entered into left a deep impression on him, but none ever held him. Neither at home in the West he had left behind nor the East he returned to. We leave DOM morals as a figure waiting for peace, and a place he can call him.
