I recently read this autobiography of K Natwar Singh titled 'One Life is not Enough'. It is interesting book and covers his life as a career diplomat and as a politician.
However going purely by his version he comes out as total pure white and unblemished. Though at places it has come out that as diplomat he was dyed in congresses hues. There appear to be number of gaps which he has successfully hidden.
He has also given very sketchy details of Volcker Report due to which he had to resign as minister and later from Congress. As per him it was not him but Congress Party which was named in the report. He has also avoided controversies about his family such as death of his daughter and business deals of his son.
The book also gives out many interesting anecdotes such as his confrontation with Morarji Desai, encounters with General Zia Ul Haq during tenure in Pakistan etc.
Overall worth reading.
