The Tunnel of Time is an autobiography of a common man. Traveling in buses, struggling for employment, visiting hospitals, repaying loans, and getting deceived by politicians after every election are common phenomena in the life of a common man. R. K. Laxman, a renowned Indian political cartoonist, depicted the common man in uncommon ways through his cartoons. He tries to find a light at the end of the tunnel through his cartoons.
His artwork was a careful and thoughtful observation of the common man and their agonies, comprehended through cartoons. He hailed from a small town in Karnataka called Mysore and dwelled in the city of Mumbai. Honored with numerous national and international awards, his legendary life remained simple throughout. I'm happy to have read the autobiography of a common man. Highly recommended.
