    About Ruskin Bond

    Ruskin Bond, born in 1934, is an Indian author of British descent.

    The author has written novels, poems, essays, and over 500 short stories. Some of his novels are Scenes From A Writer's Life, The Road To The Bazaar, Once Upon A Monsoon Time, The India I love, and The Blue Umbrella. His short story collections include Garland of Memories, Funny Side Up, A Season of Ghosts, An Island of Trees, and Potpourri.

    He is said to be one of contemporary India’s best authors. He spent four years in England to complete his high school education. There, he started to pen down his first novel, Room On The Roof, in London at the age of seventeen. It was a semi-autobiography of an orphaned Anglo-Indian boy named Rusty. Some films that have been based on his books are Junoon, adapted from A Flight of Pigeons, and The Blue Umbrella. In 1957, for his first novel, Bond was awarded the John Llewellyn Rhys prize for writers under the age of 30. He also won the Sahitya Akademi Award in 1993 as well as the Padma Shri in 1999. Bond currently lives in Mussoorie with his adopted family.

    subtle humor helps through ISC

    well... hello there fellow readers.. I bought this book just a week before my +2 level boards. I was searching in flipkart for such a book that that's funny(enough to stitch a smile on your lips but if you are searching for LOL or ROFL types, better check out something else), refreshing and cool, something that doesn't distract me too much from my textbooks but is quite a page turner while reading. Bravo to flip kart... they dished it out pretty soon.. though the delivery boy was dumb enough ...
