Here's a treat for Ruskin Bond fans – The Ruskin Bond Omnibus IV. This superb volume contains carefully selected stories from Ruskin Bond's archives. These are fascinating tales conveying a gamut of themes – love, laughter, the sinister, and the goodness of human nature. These stories are sure to capture every emotion of readers and make them ask for more. In The Rupa Book of Love Stories, Ruskin Bond brings together some wonderfully moving love stories written by master storytellers such as Oscar Wilde, O' Henry, Guy de Maupassant and Anthony Hope. Sometimes tragic, sometimes humorous, these magical tales of love and passion are indeed an enjoyable read. The Rupa Laughter Omnibus is an anthology of hilarious stories, humorous articles and comic verse that will make the reader smile, chuckle or even laugh out loud, whether it is an account of a crazy cricket match, or a cheese that smells, or a goat that goes berserk. The Rupa Book of Wicked Stories illustrates the dark side of human nature. The stories in this collection have a strand of wickedness of some kind running through them. Sometimes the protagonists are wicked; sometimes the author is. Our anthologiser, Ruskin Bond, shifts his focus in The Rupa Book of Heartwarming Stories, and brings together stories that restore one's faith in the goodness of human nature. The fifteen stories in this collection bring to the readers warmth, hope, and the joie de vivre so important to our existence.
