आज़ादी के पाँच दशक पूरे होने और आधुनिकता के तमाम आयातित अथवा मौलिक रूपों को भीतर तक आत्मसात् कर चुकने के बावजूद आज भी हम कहीं-न-कहीं सवर्ण और अवर्ण के दायरों में बँटे हुए हैं। सिद्धान्तों और किताबी बहसों से बाहर, जीवन में हमें आज भी अनेक उदाहरण मिल जाएँगे, जिनमें हमारी जाति और वर्णगत असहिष्णुता स्पष्ट दृष्टिगोचर होती है। ‘जूठन' ऐसे ही उदाहरणों की श्रृंखला है जिन्हें एक दलित व्यक्ति ने अपनी पूरी संवेदनशीलता के साथ ख़ुद भोगा है।

Ruskin Bond's writing brings the world to us in profound and remarkable ways. His signature style is simplicity itself, but the themes he tackles are big, deep and universal - love, loss, happiness, grief, and all the shades of emotion in between. These are stories of city and small town, mountain and lowland, and of life lived slowly and lightly. For over 50 years, these tales have charmed and beguiled several generations of readers.

Stories Short and Sweet by Ruskin Bond is a collection of his choicest short stories, capturing the myriad facets of life in the hills. Humour, nostalgia, love, friendship, trust and betrayal - Bond captures every mood that makes our life worth remembering.

Tall and sturdy, their leaves gently rustling in the wind, trees form the backbone of life on Earth. They never discriminate between life forms while welding them from the heat or showering them with their bounty. But these providers of life have always been taken for granted, chopped down or burnt to ashes to accommodate the March of modernity. In this book, Ruskin Bond gives a humane touch to these gentle giants, from the legendary Willows, who do more than ‘weep’, to the godlike deodars, who are forever trying to reach the heavens to live up to their name.

A living picture of the entire life of the Indian farmer - his aspiration and despair, his sincerity and religious piety, his helplessness and innocence.
