书籍简介

“阿努拉达·罗伊的文字让人恨不得立刻奔赴喜马拉雅山，去看看鲜花盛开的山谷和胆大的豹子，和当地的牧牛人闲聊几句，照料流浪狗，帮作者打理她那杂乱无章的花园。这本书真是美极了。”——塞巴斯蒂安·福克斯

小说家阿努拉达·罗伊和她的丈夫在拉尼凯特山站偶然发现了一间破败的小屋，便决定在此定居。罗伊之前一直生活在喧嚣的德里，起初她对山里悠闲的生活节奏感到有些不适应，但很快就被征服了：她被这里的风景深深吸引，与那些有时有些桀骜不驯的邻居们建立了深厚的友谊，还收养了四只山狗（而且数量还在增加）。二十五年间，她逐渐习惯了在豹子自由漫步的森林中生活，也因此邂逅了大自然狂野、迷人、也脆弱的一面——并亲眼目睹了全球变暖对高山生态系统造成的破坏性影响。

《群山召唤：喜马拉雅山的家园》以细腻的笔触描绘了一个家、一个社群以及一片崎岖壮丽的自然景观。作者以冷静客观、幽默诙谐又饱含深情的笔触，讲述了一个意义深远的转变故事。

‘Anuradha Roy’s writing makes you want to rush to the Himalaya, see the flower valleys and the bold leopards, gossip with the local cowherds, tend the stray dogs and help out in the author’s wayward garden. In every way a beautiful book.’ Sebastian Faulks

When novelist Anuradha Roy and her husband stumble upon a derelict cottage in the hill station of Ranikhet, they decide it is where they will now live. After the frenetic city of Delhi, Roy is initially bemused by the gentle pace of life in the mountains but then won over: spellbound by the landscape, taken to the heart of their sometimes recalcitrant neighbours and adopted by four mountain dogs and counting. Over twenty-five years, as she becomes accustomed to living among forests where leopards roam freely, she will come to encounter nature at its most fierce, captivating and vulnerable – and bear witness to the destructive impact of global warming on the alpine ecosystem.

Called by the Hills: A Home in the Himalaya is a tender and intimate portrait of a home, a community and a rugged, extraordinary landscape. Written with unsentimental clarity, humour and poignancy, this is an account of profound transformations.
