It is a portal into a world of eccentric, odd but, above all else, kind-hearted and warm people who live alongside the natural and historical beauty found in these towns.\u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003eMy Time in the Town\u003c\/i\u003e, Bond brings together a collection of his best writing on small-town India, in all its nuanced yet simple and unhurried glory. With these stories, Bond shows us the irresistible warmth and appeal of small-town life while also exposing the often dark, superstitious, ghostly or even just politically corrupt aspects of it. This book promises to be a journey into the soulful and laid-back simplicity of small towns!","brand":"Rupa Publications","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45675091918999,"sku":"9789357020985","price":127.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789357020985.webp?v=1769295544","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/my-time-in-the-town-9789357020985","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
