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 swashbuckling 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 POWs are finely drawn, as we experience the emotions of war-death, alienation, loneliness, and grief. The book brings out similar sentiments in people of the sub-continent through heart-warming anecdotes of people from both sides. Simultaneously, through conversational passages reflecting the 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. It also tries to explore the high-intensity ideological divides between the ideas underpinning the nations of India and Pakistan, as it continues till the present day, and unravelling through a unique narrative, the contemporary question, why peace, though desirable, may remain elusive.
