 #1 of the initially highly autobiographical monsoon trilogy:

#1: "bitter monsoon" (1955) (this book)
#2: "the last monsoon" (1957), q.v.
#3: "after the monsoon" (1958), q.v.

#2 follows the second world war in india (including burma) and southern south-east asia (including siam/thailand) through the surrender of the japanese army, and #3 the reintegration of the civilian populations as well as the military into a peaceful approximation of normal civilian life.
#2 & #3 rely increasingly upon third party reports, but the author was a hawker hurricane r.a.f. pilot flying over imphal, etc. in the burma & south-east asia campaign from 1944 onwards.
