Book Description

About the Book There's a pygmy mountain at the edge of the village. Near the top of the mountain is a mysterious hole. If you toss a stone down that hole, it will keep falling until you return to hear it hit the bottom. There's a second-grader named Bolu in the village school. He only speaks while he walks. If you want to speak to him, you must walk with him. And then there's the moon, rising from the green grass roof. It travels with Bolu and his friends wherever they go. In this book, light as pebbles skimming across a pond, Vinod Kumar Shukla speaks of the wonder of a universe in which, however separate we seem, we are inevitably joined as one.

About the Author Vinod Kumar Shukla is a poet and novelist from Raipur, Chhatisgarh who is renowned for evoking the inner lives of ordinary people in language that mixes daily experience with dreams, the mundane with the surreal. His first collection of poems Lagbhag Jai Hind was published in 1971, followed by Vah Aadmi Chala Gaya Naya Garam Coat Pehankar Vichar Ki Tarah in 1981. His first novel, Naukar Ki Kameez, was published in 1979 and made into a film by Mani Kaul. In 1999, Shukla was given a Sahitya Akademi award for his novel Deewar Mein Ek Khidki Rehti Thi. An English translation of Shukla's third novel Khilega to Dekhenge (1996) was published by HarperCollins India as Once It Flowers in 2015. Hari Ghaas Ki Chhappar Vaali Jhopdi Aur Bauna Pahaad was published in 2011. HarperCollins India have just published Shukla's latest novel Yasi Rasa Ta (2017) in the Hindi original.
