A Book Of Simple Living: Brief Notes From The Hills

“A Book of Simple Living: Brief Notes from the Hills” by Ruskin Bond is a serene collection of reflections, anecdotes, and observations drawn from the author’s life in the foothills of the Himalayas. Through short, meditative entries, Bond explores the art of living simply—finding joy in morning mist, birdcalls in the dawn, the taste of home-grown vegetables, and the pleasure of unhurried conversations.

Each note captures a moment of everyday wonder: the scent of pine on a rainy day, the thrill of spotting a wild deer, or the warmth of a shared cup of tea. Written in his eloquent yet unassuming style, these brief essays remind readers that contentment often lies in the small details of life and in our connection to nature and community.

Perfect for anyone seeking mindfulness, peace, or inspiration to slow down, A Book of Simple Living is a gentle companion for readers longing to embrace a more thoughtful, grounded way of being.
