Death Wasn’t Painful is a true account of the experiences of a former Indian fighter pilot; who was taken prisoner during the 1971 Indo-Pak/Bangladesh Liberation War. While depicting the intrepid life of fighter pilots in active combat; the book also has an introspective side where it portrays the soldier’s reactions to the terrifying realities of war. The experiences of prisoners of war are finely drawn; as we share the emotions of war—death; alienation; loneliness and grief. Through heart-warming anecdotes and conversational passages of interactions with Pakistani interrogators; attendants; jailors and civilians; the book juxtaposes the metaphor of physical battles in the sky with the conflict of minds between two nations.
