"Haunted houses are injurious to health. With few exceptions, the occupants of the houses in these stories have come to an unpleasant, sometimes messy end. Ghosts resent being disturbed. They are fussy about who they must have as a neighbour. From his haunted rocking chair, Ruskin Bond takes you on a goose-pimply tour of some famous haunted houses in fiction. There s Thurnley Abbey, with its terrifying midnight apparition; M.R. James s haunted doll s house; Hugh Walpole s sinister staircase; and the old manor houses whose hauntings are investigated by Flaxman Low, the Sherlock Holmes of the supernatural. And there s Bram Stoker, who gives Dracula the night off and replaces him with an equally terrifying hanging judge.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. In 2012, Jerry Pinto published his debut novel, Em and the Big Hoom, which drew upon his experience of living with a mother who was bipolar. It touched thousands of readers, among them many who also had a loved one afflicted with a mental illness or infirmity. Some of these readers shared their stories with Jerry, and agreed to share them with the world. A Book of Light collects these harrowing yet moving, even empowering, storiesabout the fragility and immense strength of the human mind; the bleakness and unexpected grace of life; the terror and majesty of love. It has now become a book that many people with psychological challenges, and their friends and family, turn to for insight and solaceand to feel less invisible and alone. (jacket).
