Mountain love

In love with the mountains

Some books take you to the mountains as you flip pages

Some books remind you of the time you have invested in the mountains

Some books make want to go the mountains

Some books touch you gently

Some books hit you hard

Ruskin Bond and Namita Gokhale - a big thank you for coming out with the book

For allowing me to stand on the shoulders of giants as they shared of their time in the mountains. The cover by Roerich stands tall. Authors include Rahul Sankrityayan, Rabindranath Tagore, Mark Twain, Dom Moraes and Manjushree Thapa.

This is what Namita Gokhale's website refers to the book as, "This anthology attempts to capture some of its complexity and vastness, traveling through time, place, and attitude. Beauty and melancholy, courage and defeat, philosophy and poetry surprise and illuminate us in these pages"

Mountains, many a time, make us go silent
