The first part deals with the childhood and adolescent of the author and the protagonist. The book has many parts – three to be precise. He has kept the tone and tenure of the book near to the aspirations and expectations of the readers and one can safely say that he, as an author, does not bore you or does not let you throw the book aside that simply. Snowden, to be honest, has done very well with writing an autobiography – compared to what he does writing his codes. It is not as much thrilling as the books by some of the best crime thriller novelists in India may be, but it is certainly much better than many autobiographies you might have read. Well, the experience that I had reading this book was nothing like you have while reading an autobiography by an amateur writer. Before Snowden discovered and disclosed these things, no one in the world could have thought in this direction and the love that people have for Obama could not taste the bitterness when Obama did everything possible to get Snowden back and try him as a traitor – yes, dear ladies and gentlemen, Obama isn’t a holy cow! Well, I am not talking about politics I am here to discuss a book that Edward Snowden has written – Permanent Record: An Autobiography. Edward Snowden has become synonymous with internet freedom or, in sophisticated terms, one’s right over one’s data – privacy in true sense and transparency on the part of government towards the citizens in terms of mass surveillance and observation.
