Desc: Tales of Fosterganj by Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan Ruskin Bond is a striking novel with delightful and unusual characters. Its wit and effortless humour is a compelling and captivating read.
The story is set in an imaginary suburb on the outskirts of Mussourie, the one made famous by his fabulous stories. Ruskin Bond s graceful skill for story-telling is yet again brought out in this book. He makes simplicity the most desirable and the most beautiful virtue. With a subtle humour, the book unravels the myriad colours and faces of its characters in an unassuming elegance. A must read for Ruskin Bond s fans. Like most of his books talking about hill stations and foothills of the great Himalayas, Tales of Fosterganj also paints pictures that evoke a spectrum of emotions.
