But Raj's childhood was also marked by tragedy. When he was just seven years old, his father died suddenly. This event had a profound impact on Raj, and he struggled to come to terms with his loss. In the years that followed, he withdrew from his family and friends, and he became increasingly solitary. As Raj grew older, he began to question the traditions and values of his family. He was troubled by the caste system, by the arranged marriages that were common in his culture, and by the way that women were treated. He began to rebel against his family's expectations, and he eventually left India to pursue his education in England. <em>Out of India</em> is a story of love, loss, and redemption. It is a story of a child who is torn between two worlds, and who ultimately finds his own way. Raj's memoir is a beautifully written and deeply moving account of a childhood spent in India. It is a story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. **Reviews** "<em>Out of India</em> is a mesmerizing memoir of childhood in India.
