Publisher's Summary

Rain in the Mountains brings together some of Ruskin Bond’s most beautiful works from his years spent in the foothills of the Himalayas in the town of Mussoorie. Through vivid images and lucid writing, Bond evokes the everyday sights and sounds, and captures the essence of mountain life. The musings on his natural habitat, in both prose and poetry, offer a view of that simple and affable world. Some of his writings featured in the book include: "Once Upon a Mountain Time", "Sounds I Like to Hear", "How Far Is the River" and "After the Monsoon".

Rain in the Mountains will transport the listener into the quiet world of the mountains, lit with an eternal charm.

Rain or sunshine, mountains are mesmerizing

Listen to this collection of the snippets of the instances from the great author's own life and realise why he chose Mussoorie to make his home where every raindrop, every ray of the sun, every bird, every flower is the call of the heavens. Pity, the little hill station and the bigger foothill town, Dehradun, my home, have fallen to the demon of development, where green has become grey, where the rains have become curse and the sunshine now pierces into your soul.
