The Book titled "The Last Orange lost and found memoir"


Kisan Upadhaya was born in Assam, India, in 1966. He was separated from his sister, mother, and father at age four and found himself starving, sick and begging for food on the streets of Kathmandu, Nepal. Soon the bitter cold of winter got the best of him from having to work for food and he became very ill and near death. He was taken to the hospital,  where he spent almost six months recovering and was discharged to the  Christian home called Mendies Haven Children’s Home where he grew up.  He came to the U.S. in 1987 to study and is now working in Durham, North Carolina, where he lives with his wife and two children. In the intervening years he tried to search for his biological family and failed. However, 42 year later he was reunited on live TV with his mother and dear sister in August 2011

His sister spent 9 years in slavery working from one household to another and managed to survive alone without her brother Kisan. This book is a great story of inspiration that you will not regret buying it but enjoy reading it.
