Tales from Randhor is a collection of stories about life in the idyllic village of Randhor. Set in the midst of
a flower draped valley surrounded by snow covered mountains is this tranquil, near perfect village. This
place is far away from the reach of today's technology and its attendant gadgets such as phones and
television. Habited by various animals and birds unique to this lovely village, the residents for the most
part peacefully co- exist with nature. Randhor is replete with adventure and the mystery of the
mundane but interwoven with the influence of the Ramayana.
Tales of Randhor will delight as it skillfully leads the reader through its various stories by portraying
different facets of village life, long forgotten by many. For instance, the story "Motor Car Comes to
Randhor", gleefully highlights the reactions of the villagers when Motilal decides to buy an automobile.
The story, "Modern Medicine" focuses on the tug of war in the minds of the residents who have to now
choose between the young doctor's allopathic medicines and the medicine man's ancient wisdom of
healing with the help of plants and herbs native to Randhor. And what about the story of the monkeys?
They sure outnumber the people in the village. Yet for a while their future is not certain as they are
prone to mischief and frequently annoy the village folk.
These stories and others will give the reader an insight into the everyday lives and adventures of the
simple and fun-loving residents of Randhor. And at the end of it, perhaps you will want to take a trip to
Randhor yourself, at least in your mind's eye, and re-imagine the way these village folk live in this
peaceful Shangri La.
