Had I grown up with other children, I might have developed a taste for schoolboy anarchy; but, in sharing my father'soneliness after his separation from my mother, I had turned into a premature adult.' There is no telling where friendships might be made and how. Friends of My Youth is a collection of short stories by Ruskin Bond on howittle and almost seemingly insignificant incidents ofife canead us to the person in whom we may find a companion, a comrade.
