Tales of Fosterganj by Ruskin Bond is a fiction that opens window to a remote and quaint village Fosterganj, located around the hills of Mussoorie. The story traces the journey of a writer from Delhi, who lands up in Fosterganj by chance. Though initially annoyed by the place and the people, he decides to stick there because of the interesting viewpoint he gets from his bathroom. Being a writer, he tries to isolate himself but his constant encounters with the natives makes him realise that each one of them has an intense story behind them. The engaging characters such as Hassan, a hardworking baker, a pickpocket who couldn't give up his habit of picking pockets, a mother and her son living in a haunted house, a bank manager, a drunkard who cooks up pity stories to earn people's sympathy thus their money, etc. have weaved a strong plot along with the writer.
