A small pictorial trip to a garden inspired by literature.........
Katherine Mansfield was a New Zealand-born author recognised internationally as one of the foremost pioneers in modern literature. ‘The Garden Party’ is one of her best-known works. Garden design detail recalls the style and architecture appropriate to the Edwardian period in New Zealand. Some elements are directly inspired by the original story including a marquee set for a party, a tennis court and a small band. Under the marquee, delicate treats and beverages crafted from resin and concrete have been laid out ahead of the party. There is also an Edwardian era Ford Model T. Katherine Masfield’s museum is known as Katherine Mansfield House and Garden and is located in Wellington, New Zealand (pic credits to the same) #bookedforlifeindia #bookedforlife #bookstagramindia #bookwormlife #literarylifestyle #theliterarylife #bookishthings #thereadinglife #bookishlife #bookinfluencer #booktography #readmorebooks #bookreviewer #bookstagram #mumbaibooksta #indiabookstagram #bookstagrammersindia #bookishstories #readersofinsta #theliteraryworld #bookpromotion #loveforliterature #literarymusings #bookishmusings #articlesonbooks #bookmarketing #katherinemansfield #katherinemansfieldhouse #literarytravels #travelwithlit

On the very first page of Ruskin Bond’s ‘A Boo

On the very first page of Ruskin Bond’s ‘A Book of Simple Living’, is a very beautiful and serene illustration of a trail of ants. Even before I can immerse myself in the soothing words of this book, my mind goes back a decade in time. My now-tween then-toddler and I were in a park, staring at a long line of ants that he spotted. We had all the time to ‘stand and stare’ at the busy ants. I still remember feeling so calm and at ease, and experiencing a sense of solidarity with nature, even as the world around us went buzzing by. This is exactly the kind of feeling that reading ‘A Book of Simple Living” evokes!

Looking for the Rainbow by Ruskin Bond
.
. On the 86th birthday of one of the most revered writers of India, it is apt to pay homage to his simple and yet deep reflective and honest writing. Ruskin Bond’s books and stories resonate with children and adults alike. ..........................................
It is difficult to choose my favourite Ruskin Bond work. Yes, it is like finding a needle in a haystack! But, I would rate “Looking for the Rainbow” clearly amongst his best. This was a birthday gift to his fans on his 83rd birthday. .........................................
“Looking for the Rainbow”, his book for his young fans, chronicles two precious years of his life spent with his father, who clearly remains to be the most influential person in his world, even as he crosses his eighties. He mentions in the beginning, that contrary to popular opinion, his memory has not faded with age. He remembers his childhood days very clearly. He loses his father early and this has a deep impact on his life. However, this memoir acknowledges this painful fact with so much beauty and tenderness. There is absolutely no bitterness. Only a great writer can achieve this balance. And this is why this book remains one of my favourite works!

“Children are naturally highly creative in nature. Parents must provide a non-judgmental atmosphere to them. Provide the exposure, but don’t interfere with the process”
