READ WELL, WRITE WELL

Bond, Ruskin
READ WELL, WRITE WELL
We don't have to circle the world in order to find beauty and fulfilment. After all, most of living has to happen in the mind. And, to quote one anonymous sage from my trivet, "The world is only the size of each man's head."' Writers will often tell you that the most important thing you can do to build your skill is to read other great writers. Reading is not only food for the soul but also fodder for the brain. We often only realize in hin...

THE TREES OF DEHRA

Bond, Ruskin
THE TREES OF DEHRA
Tall and sturdy, their leaves gently rustling in the wind, trees form the backbone of life on Earth. They never discriminate between life forms while welding them from the heat or showering them with their bounty. But these providers of life have always been taken for granted, chopped down or burnt to ashes to accommodate the March of modernity. In this book, Ruskin Bond gives a humane touch to these gentle giants, from the legendary Willows, ...

THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN

Bond, Ruskin
THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN
I thought of running away with Kamla. When I mentioned it to her, her eyes lit up. She thought it would be great fun. Women in love can be more reckless than men! But I had read too many stories about runaway marriages ending in disaster, and I lacked the courage to go through with such an adventure. I must have known instinctively that it would not work. Where would we go, and how would we live? There would be no home to crawl back to, for e...

The Yellow Umbrella

Bond, Ruskin
The Yellow Umbrella
What should he be like, this lost man? A romantic, a man with a dream, a man with brown skin and blue eyes, living in a hut on a snowy mountaintop... a man who owed allegiance to no one... who was his own master, who lived at one with nature knowing no fear. But that was not Major Roberts-that was the man I wanted to be.' It is believed that the foundation of every good relationship-platonic or otherwise-is friendship. The familiarity and ease...

Bond, Ruskin
Tales of the Open Road: Signed as on Road with Ruskin Bond
I have come to believe that the best kind of walk, or journey, is the one in which you have no particular destination when you set out.' Ruskin Bond's travel writing is unlike what is found in most travelogues, because he will take you to the smaller, lesser-known corners of the country, acquaint you with the least-famous locals there, and describe the flora and fauna that others would have missed. And if the place is well known, Ruskin leaves...

Town Called Dehra

Bond, Ruskin
Town Called Dehra
In this delightful collection, Ruskin Bond introduces us to the Dehradun he knows intimately and loves unreservedly--the town that he had spent many years of his childhood and youth in. A town which, when he knew it, was one of pony-drawn tongas and rickshaws, a town fond of gossip but tolerant of human foibles, a town of lush lichi trees, charming winter gardens and cool streams, a small town, a sleepy town, a town called 'Dehra'. With classi...
