Paperback. Condition: New. In A Kitchen in the Corner of the House, Ambai's narrators are daring and courageous, stretching and reinventing their homes, marriages, and worlds. With each story, her expansive voice confronts the construction of gender in Tamil literature. Piecing together letters, journal entries, and notes, Ambai… weaves themes of both self-liberation and confinement into her writing. Her transfixing stories often meditate on motherhood, sexuality, and the liberating, and at times inhibiting, contours of the body.

Soft cover. Condition: New. Myths and legends jostle with the contemporary in these stories where social issues of our times resonate with the inevitability of the past. The lyricism of Carnatic ragas permeate the pages of this quiet and powerful book in which love is rendered in all its immeasurable avatarsparental, carnal, pla…tonic, romantic, divine. There is the woman who reinvents the notion of love in a unique way that amalgamates technology and spirituality through the Internet; a man full of love who can sing bulleh Shah and the woman who has lost her all in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots; the woman in the eponymous story who stands by her deaf daughter but understands why her husband must leave the home they have built with love all these years; the man who finds out what it is to be a woman after a dip in the pond. These short stories are shorn of sentimentality but have a deep understand-ing of what it means to live, to love and to die. Cs Lakshmi, writing under the pseudonym a MBA I, has been a significant voice in Indian literature for the past four decades. A red-necked Green bird is the writer seventh collection of short stories.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 'The real canvas of Sudha Gupta's work is the murky depth of human behaviour. The Death of a Sarus Crane is not formulaic crime fiction. It is, instead, a study of the patterns and possibilities of crime in urban India.'—Scroll.in Suspense, intrigue, and astute social commentary converge in these four… detective stories by Sahitya Akademi award-winning Tamil author Ambai. Private eye Sudha Gupta, who is as unusual as she is unassuming, is on a mission to uncover Mumbai's underbelly, where injustice and violence lurk in unexpected corners. Wherever the ace detective goes, whether to swanky apartments or humble chawls, she discovers new ideas and versions of Mumbai. 'A Room Measuring 250 Square Feet' tackles taboos and secrets, 'The Death of a Sarus Crane' explores privilege and tragedy, while 'Sepal' delves into forbidden love, and the poignant finale, 'Bun, Maska and Irani Chai', courageously redefines belonging and friendship. Through each mystery, involving a complex interplay of people and social forces, Ambai's narrative remains clear and effortless. Relying on a small entourage of friends, Sudha Gupta delivers a unique perspective on Mumbai that we overlook.
