Not the sort of book that would normally hold my attention, but the sensitivity and openness of the writing made me want to know the author better, and that quest kept me following in his footsteps from chapter to chapter. I read it in one sitting, lest I lose sight of him in the complex environments he brings so vividly to life. When I turned the last page, I left the book feeling as if I'd sat across the aisle from an unforgettable individual on a train.The journey was over all too quickly and I got off at my stop glad to have met him, but with a hint of regret at the thought that I'd never encounter him again. It takes a brilliant author to accomplish that. Don't pass this one by.
When a five-year-old child falls asleep on a train in India, his life is changed forever. As he sleeps, the train transports him away from everything he knows. The child from a rural village awakes in the capital city of India, Calcutta, with all the dangers an urban setting brings. Used to begging for food, he manages to scavenge enough to survive, choosing to sleep each night with a group of holy men, thereby insuring his safety. The boy's name is "Sheru," which is the Hindu word for "lion." My first question was answered, for I could not see a connection between an African animal and a small child from India. Over time, Sheru becomes Saroo, the name he goes by today. After surviving about two months on the streets of Calcutta, Saroo ends up in an orphanage while authorities attempt to find his family. When no one comes forward to identify Saroo, he becomes available for adoption. Within a few months, a childless couple, the Brierleys, adopt Saroo and take him to Hobart, Tasmania, Australia to live. A few years later, the couple adopts another little Indian boy, Saroo's brother, Mantash. While life in Australia is a happy time for Saroo, he never forgets his Indian family, his mother, Kamla, named after the Hindu goddess of creation, Kamala, his two older brothers, Kallu and Guddu, and his younger sister, Shekila. The father of the family has married a second wife and has abandoned his first family, thereby leaving them pitifully poor. Kamla earns a meager living carrying construction bricks on her head, but all the children scavenge food and beg for money to survive. As the years go by, Saroo wonders if his memories of his previous life are accurate or merely the imaginings of a five-year-old. Saroo has his Australian friends and his Indian friends, and he becomes aware of the internet and Google Earth, a program that allows one to get a bird's eye view of geographic locations. It is then that Saroo decides to search for the neighborhood in which he grew up. After five years of meticulous searching and against all odds, on March 31, 2011, Saroo locates the house he grew up in! He begins to plan his visit to India twenty years after he left it. Concerned he will hurt the feelings of his adoptive parents, he gently refuses their requests to accompany him, feeling this is something he must do by himself.The rest of this book deals with the incredible reunion with his Indian family, how both his families meet, and how the product of two widely diverse cultures adjusts to a contented future. The years-long search could have ended in failure many times, but I believe Destiny played a major role in reuniting Saroo with his Indian family. It also speaks to the stubbornness of an individual who refuses to give up on the dream of finding his original family, assisted by countless people who offered opinions, encouragement, and other assistance when needed. I was especially impressed by Kamla's faith that her son would return if she simply stayed where he could find her. I highly recommend this book.
I'm pretty sure that almost everybody who reads this book, "Lion" by Saroo Brierley, is going to see the movie with Dev Patel. Or, has already seen it. The book, which was originally published under the title of "A Long Way Home: A Memoir", has been reissued as a tie-in for the newly released movie. "Lion" is the story of a journey a five year old boy makes by himself from his hometown in rural India, to the large city of Calcutta. (now, Kolkata) and after being lost in the streets of the huge city, is taken to an orphanage, where he is luckily adopted by an Australian family from Tasmania. He lives the next twenty years, happily with his new family, but always remembers the tragic journey and his mother and siblings he left behind in India. With the advent of Google maps, he's able to trace his birth family's village. He then travels back to India and is reunited with that family, while remaining close to his adopted family and life in Australia.That's basically Saroo Brierley's story and how he tells it in the book is interesting. But as I read it, I felt a bit of a remove from Brierley's telling it. Am I asking for more emotion, and if so, is that a fair request? I'm looking forward to seeing the movie next week, and there, on the screen, might be a more vivid recreation. I enjoyed reading the book, though.
What I found interesting was that I could envision the book as a movie from it's narration--even if a movie about this story had not been made.We first meet Saroo as a toddler, then narrating his memories before the age of 5. He does so for many chapters, until he becomes an adult and seems ready to back track any memories or words he had seen from his past. ( At this point he has moved out of his loving, adoptive home on another continent), yet felt comfortable enough to find his biological family--the one he remembers at age 5--from India. And that, he does!Over all, I believe that the adoption center he was living in after losing his way at the age of 5, saved his life. If he had continued to live on the streets of places after becoming disorientated and lost from riding 'run-away trains', the child could have been taken into horrific bondage. God Bless him for that not happening!It is a fine story.
I remember being 5 yrs old and I think it would have killed me to find myself alone in a huge city like Saroo did. This is an amazing story of his survival, adoption in Australia and his eventual reunification with his family in India. This true story kept me on the edge of my seat throughout and in the end left me with joy in my heart! In the end many lives in India and Australia were enriched because of Saroo's adoptive parent's selfless decision to adopt, educate and nuture a needy child. As well as a compelling story, the book is well written. I will admit, I skimmed through one section about 1/3 of the way through. I don't know if it was an issue too heavily dwelt upon or my weak and pampered life. I couldn't take hearing again and again of the reality of 5 yr old Saroo's hunger and total destitude situation. I ached too much for the little boy. I would love to see the movie and I definitely recommend the book.
