Dragon In The Tunnel
�Although the India of Kim is no more and the Grand Trunk Road is now a procession of trucks instead of a slow-moving caravan of horses and camels, India is still a country in which people are easily lost and quickly forgotten.�Did you know that Delhi was half its present size in the 1940s and 50s? Can you imagine a Dehradun with lush greenery, with hardly any commercial places? Do you remember steam engines or have you ever sat in a train pulled by one?This book takes you back in time as Ruskin Bond relives his memories in timeless classics like �Summertime in Old Delhi�, �Bhabiji�s House�,� My Father�s Trees in Dehra�, creating as only he can, vignettes imbued with nostalgia. Add to these the punch of stories like �A Station for Scandal�, the thrill of �Picnic at Fox-Burn� and the surprise twist of �The Eyes have It��and you have a story for every mood!This collection of seventeen stories showcases Bond at his story-telling best.
