“i own most of the collection of Ruskin Bond stories. he writes simply, innocently, sincerily. On my occasional summer visits to mussourie, i would hope to bump into him. I never did, but I imagined his hill station, his dehra, his trees, his dad, his boarding, his ayah, his grandmother, his tongawala an the simple folk that he lived around with as vividly as he wrote. I am and will remain very fond of his world of people.
