Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. A transcreation of Jaiwanti Dimri s Hindi novella, Surju Ke Naam, this is the story of Sukurmani, a young woman who migrates to Bhutan with her four-year-old son, Surju, in search of livelihood, stability and peace. A Dumka tribal from Jharkhand, the one constant in her life is change as she crosses many borders from Ranchi in Jharkhand, to Kokrajhar to Darranga in Bodoland, to Bishalgarh in Tripura, to Rungthung and finally to Kanglung in east Bhutan to escape ethnic clashes, unrest and himsa, the omnipresent and many-faced violence which follows her. Set in the small, scenic hill town of Kanglung, much of the story is told through a dialogue between two women: Sukurmani and her Memsaab. Through her Memsaab s eyes, we get glimpses of Sukurmani s life, past and present. We witness her struggles to make ends meet as a single mother, an illiterate labourer and uninhibited tribal in an alien land. We also see her as a self-reliant, resilient woman living her own life with willful little Surju, who trails her like a shadow, a participant in all his mother s joys and sorrows. As the narrative unfolds, an unusual bond forms between these two different women: two Indian expatriates, one legal and one illegal. A poignant and thought-provoking story simply told, it lingers even after the last word is read. (jacket).…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Gopeshwar has played an important role in the history of Uttarakhand particularly Garhwal Himalaya. The place is located at a distance of about 10 km. from Chamoli on Rishikesh-Badrinath motorable raod. Being located in the middle of the holy shrine of Kedarnath and Badrinath, Gopeshwar enjoys the reputation of being a halting point of pilgrimages from time immemorial. The place has the privilege of having an inscribed iron trident set-up-by Ganapati Nag in honour of Rudra Siva in sixth century AD and a tallest Nagra Shikhara temple assignable to eighth ninth century AD built by the Katyuri of Central Himalaya. The sculptural evidence suggest that art activity started at Gopeshwar sometime in fifth-sixth century AD in its initial stage inspired by the Gupta art traditions of Central India, subsequently developed in its own style during ninth-tenth century AD and began to decline from twelfth century A.D. Hence, Gopeshwar served as mirror of art of Uttarakhand Himalaya. In this book on attempt has been made to highlight the different phases of art activities at Gopeshwar along with the illustrations and detail description of each sculpture which will help to understand the different phases of art activities in Uttarakhand Himalaya.

Hardcover. Condition: New. These are some true stories from Bhutan, the Land of Thunder Dragon. Raw stories served on the platter without a pinch of salt, sugar or spice in them. Facts are stranger than fiction. I never felt it so strongly as in Druk Yul. The valleys in East Bhutan looked like an idyllic landscape painting. So are the stories perfect, complete in themselves that do not need any brush of extra shade or colouring in them. Ripe, juicy fruits falling down right into the hands of the path-walkers. So are they offered to the readers fresh and juicy with the flavour of the trees and the flowers, the air and the sky, the streams and the rivers and the valleys and the mountains where they grew and blossomed.…
