The Room on the Roof



Rusty, a sixteen-year old Anglo-Indian boy, is orphaned and has to live with Mr. Harrison on the European area of Dehradun. Unhappy with Mr. Harrison's stern behaviour and constant efforts of turning Rusty into an Englishman, he runs away from his home. He meets a group of Indian kids (Somi, Ranbir and Suri) and is enchanted by the Indian customs, festivals and foods (golgappa and patties) .Soon he realizes that life on his own is not going to be as easy as he had perceived. Somi gets Rusty a job at Mr.Kapoor's house , to teach a boy - Kishan in the neighbourhood and in return is given a room of their attic for shelter. Later he develops a liking for Meena, Kishen’s mother. But because of a trip she dies then Rusty and Kishen live together.
