  1. As I said, the list is not exhaustive…. in fact nobody’s list of good books can be exhaustive…..there’s so much to fish in the ocean, and we just have caught the shell-fish by the sea-shore!! 🙂

    Yes I have read Ruskin Bond, and I admire him, too. Indian literature wouldn’t have been the same without his contribution!!
