Notes from a Small Room

In ‘A Good Philosophy’ we learn of Bond’s life philosophy, or the lack of it, and ‘In Search of the Perfect Window’ we join him in meditating on the qualities of a good window and its importance to a room. Whether contemplating the sound of a tropical downpour, on the fragrance of lime trees in the Himalayas or on a year spent with his cat Suzie, Ruskin Bond transports us to a quieter, more elegant world where time moves at a gentle pace. He invites us to revel in the intricacies of life and to poke fun at its absurdities, with insight, wisdom and wit.
