Synopsis
In Vagrants in the Valley, which picks up from where the first book ends, Rusty is joined in his travels by Kishen, another 'runaway'. As they venture further into the unknown, they discover new friends and participate in more escapades but also begin to understand the complexities of growing up and the boundaries that circumscribe even the freest spirits...Sharply observed, witty and wise, haunted on every page by the sights, smells and sounds of India, this evocation of youth, innocence and friendship will be read for a long time to come with deep, lasting pleasure. 'Like an Indian bazaar itself, the book is filled with the smells, sights, sounds, confusion and subtle organization of ordinary Indian life.' --Santha Rama Rau in The New York Times Book Review 'Has a special magic of its own' --Herald Tribune Book Review 'Considerable charm and spontaneity...' --San Francisco Chronicle 'Very engaging...' --The Guardian 'Moving in its simplicity and underlying tenderness...a novel of marked originality.' --The Scotsman 'Mr Bond is a writer of great gifts...' --The New Statesman
