Product Description

Immerse yourself in the mist-laden hills, forest paths, and enduring enchantment of Landour with India’s most cherished storyteller. What makes a mountain town truly unforgettable? Is it the drumbeat of monsoon rain dancing across corrugated tin roofs, the quiet wonder of winter snow blanketing oak and pine forests, or the eccentric cast of shopkeepers, neighbours, and ghosts who call these ridges home? In Scenes from a Magic Mountain, legendary author Ruskin Bond opens his window onto the Himalayan foothills, offering a tender, witty, and evocative portrait of the hill station he has lived in for over six decades. From solitary walks along the Upper Chukkar and the misty contours of Pari Tibba to the bustling bakeries of Landour Bazaar and the quiet comfort of his writing desk, Bond chronicles the shifting moods of the mountains through spring blossoms, summer showers, autumn twilights, and crisp winter mornings. Rich with humor, quiet nostalgia, and deep ecological intimacy, these vignettes celebrate the beauty of slowing down, walking forgotten trails, and finding wonder in ordinary everyday sights. Why Readers Love This Book: An Evocative Tribute to Hill Station Life: Richly atmospheric prose that transports you straight to the cool, pine-scented breezes of the Garhwal Himalayas. A Year in the Mountains: Captures the distinct moods, colors, and sounds of the four seasons across Mussoorie and Landour. The Perfect Bedside Companion: Short, accessible essays and diary-like notes ideal for morning contemplation or unwinding before sleep. An Elegant Keepsake for Travelers & Dreamers: Beautifully bound, making it a thoughtful gift for Ruskin Bond fans, trekkers, mountain lovers, and armchair explorers. Read more
