Summary
The Stolen Light is the real life story of Ved Mehta, a young man attending college in California in the 1950s.
The college years are a challenging time in anyone's life, but Mehta faced particular difficulties. He was an Indian in the United States, a Hindu in a Christian environment, a dark-skinned man surrounded by white people, and he was blind. With compelling honesty, and touches of humor, Mehta describes his struggles to live an ordinary college life--dating, riding a bicycle, keeping up with his studies--while dealing with extraordinary obstacles.
