The India I Love

The India he loves does not make the headlines. But Ruskin Bond finds it wherever he goes-in field or forest, town or village, mountain or desert- nd in the hearts and minds of people who have given him love and affection for the better part of a lifetime. In this collection of prose and poems written especially for this book, Ruskin Bond looks back on his unique relationship with the country and its people. From the time he turned his back on the West and came home, still only a boy, to take up the challenge of being a writer in a changing India.
