Night Train at Deoli: And Other Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 610min
The best of a lifetime of stories from a short-story writer of rare distinction. Ruskin Bond’s stories are predominantly set in the beautiful hill country of Garhwal, where he has made his home for the last 25 years. Some of these stories present people who, consciously or otherwise, need each other: people in love or in need of love, the awkward adolescent and the timid lover. Some are gently satirical studies about village and small-town braggarts and petty officials. Several others mourn the gradual erosion of the beauty of the hills (and the gentle people who live on them) with the coming of the steel and dust and worries of modern civilization. All the stories are rewarding for their compassionate portrayal of love, loss, accomplishment, pain, and struggle." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mr. Chippy Gangjee.

Night Train at Deoli and Other Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 289min
An enchanting collection of stories from the heartland of IndiaRuskin Bond’s simple characters, living amidst the lush forests of the Himalayan foothills, are remarkable for their quiet heroism, courage and grace, and age-old values of honesty and fidelity. Residents of nondescript villages and towns, they lead lives that are touched by natural beauty as well as suffering - the loss of a loved parent, unfulfilled dreams, natural calamities, ghostly visitations, a respected teacher turned crooked, strangers who make a nuisance of themselves - which only reinforces their abiding faith in God, family, and neighbour. Told in Bond’s distinctive style, these stories are a magnificent evocation of an India that may be fast disappearing. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Deo Haldar.
