Beskrivelse af Whispers of the Rain
'In hot up-country towns in India, it is good to have the first monsoon showers arrive at night, while
you are sleeping on the veranda. You wake up to the scent of wet earth and fallen neem leaves, and
find that a hot and stuffy bungalow has been convened into a cool, damp place.'
As heavy monsoon winds begin to blow at the end of every summer, an entire country waits with
bated breath. Once rain hits the parched land, the arid landscape slowly turns green. Humans,
whistling thrushes, frogs, beetles and geckos-all rejoice.
Whispers of the Rain is a collection of short stories that celebrates the 'true spring' of India-monsoon.
Ruskin Bond's descriptive, lucid and sensitive prose takes us through the dusty whirlwinds of the
Gangetic plains, the whispering mists of Mussoorie and the thunderous Landour storms. This book
welcomes you to embrace the fresh breeze of adventurous and rainy tales as seen through the master
storyteller's eyes.
