Book Description

Ruskin Bond's readers range from nine to ninety. And if there are such things as ghosts there are probably a few who are reading him in the spirit world. In these stories Ruskin Bond presents a picture of a `haunted India' as witnessed and described by British writers, officials and travellers during the pre-independence era. Ruskin Bond, resident of Mussoorie, is a well-known writer of fiction and a raconteur par excellence. His Tales and Legends from India, Angry River, Strange Men, Strange Places, The Blue Umbrella, A Long Walk for Bina and Hanuman to the Rescue are also available in Rupa paperback. The Ruskin Bond's Children's Omnibus has been a firm favourite with young readers for several years. Ghost Stories from the Raj, The Rupa Book of Great Animal Stories, The Rupa Book of True Tales of Mystery and Adventure, The Rupa Book of Himalayan Tales and The Rupa Book of Great Suspense Stories are some of his recent books for Rupa.

Book Description

MR. MUKERJI'S GHOSTS - CLASSIC GHOST STORIES WITH THE SPICE OF THE SUBCONTINENT Mr S. Mukerji works very diligently in an office. It is not very interesting work, but Mr Mukerji has another far more diverting interest. He is an expert in ghosts and stories of ghosts. It is the height of the British Raj and Mr Mukerji is in an ideal position to discover stories about the 'sahibs' of India as he is about the Indians themselves. Mr Mukerji has (extraordinarily) a foot not just in two worlds - but in three - he is intimate with the 'other side' too. Here are tales of hauntings to amuse, puzzle and (mildly) chill the blood. Anyone who is enchanted by Kipling will enjoy Mr Mukerji's penmanship - supernatural tales from an Indian perspective from places as haunted as old English castles ever were.
