The Golden Years : The Many Joys of Living a Good Long Life By Ruskin Bond in paperback

 

Ruskin Bond, at the age of eighty-nine, has surpassed the common threshold of sixty and become a senior citizen, typically the time to consider retiring from an active lifestyle. Despite this, his satisfaction with his chosen way of life - living in Landour with his family and books - continues to strengthen. He finds great delight in the world outside his window - the ever-changing beauty of nature, intriguing individuals, delicious food, and leisurely strolls. Within the walls of his room, his thoughts and recollections are documented in his daily journal and letters. This charming book, written in Ruskin's signature warm, witty, and whimsical style, provides insightful advice on embracing and appreciating the precious gift of life as we age.
