Ruskin Bond's "Tales of the Open Road"

Was glad to know that Rusty has a new book to his credit:

Tales of the Open Road; Ruskin Bond, Penguin, Rs. 200

Must be interesting I suppose. It reminds me (rightly or wrongly) of an anthology of travel writings which he had edited. Did this idea take its birth there?

My impression of his writings is that his stories are not of the wanderer, it is of a story teller who is at great ease searching for human drama in and around his place of residence, like some curious kid who spends his summer holidays, exploring the garden...peering into tree holes, lifting stones to see what lies beneath and climbing the wall to see further.

It would be interesting to see how Rusty fares as a wanderer. Won't his stories be sad without the Deodars ?
