The bridge never built. 8. The end of a journey. 9. You too. 10. The other side. 11. Against myself. 12. Who is she. 13. Mother's diary. In this collection of short stories translated from original Hindi into English entitled Mother's Diary Rajee Seth is poised to open up a very startling and powerful genre of Indian writing. Her sharp insights into the human psyche and the sensitive etching of human frailty offer a sum of experience which is beyond any time space country or culture. Devoid of dexterous plots and complex craft her work is ostensibly a gentle revelation of human behaviour in quite ordinary circumstances. However her ruthless perceptions reveal a powerful and often unexpected world which lurks menacingly underneath the ordinary and the obtuse. When Rajee Seth writes she is like the tireless sculptor whose tools carve and shave until every hidden nuance can be sighted in what once was the faceless mask of routine existence. Her stories are of everyday sights and sounds in the miasma of living. She unveils the ordinary the silent the unspoken to reveal a sea of intense and complex emotions. Rajee's stories are also the terse reflections of a woman who sees her world through the isolated predicaments of her many roles often conflicting. 114 pp.

Hardbound. Condition: As New. New. In this age of violence resurgence of medieval fundamentalism and onslaught of market forces The Naive Bird an anthology of poems by Basanta Kumar Kar opens the windows to the nature to the realms of sensitivities and soft emotions. Keshav Malik former Editor Indian Literature comments thus Mr. Basanta Kumar Kar is a prolific poet. During my last meeting he was kind enough to inform me that he had penned poems numbering a couple of thousands though he has come into the must not all that long ago. This is to his credit. His perseverance ought to be acknowledged. Apparently there is a whole world of experience in him waiting to be given tongue. He brings out the words and comments that we involuntarily mumble incoherently in our hearts out to the broad daylight in a formed language. This art entails much courage for the risk taken. Of course there awaits much applause for his act of imagination which is bound to touch some hearts. Whether anyone assaying poems succeeds in evoking response from an individual here or a larger mass of readership there is in the lap of the Gods. The poet's best bet is not to think of the matter at all and only to single mindedly hear the mill of his mind and translate them into a brisk action forming thoughts and then words in clarity. If you as poet are content with this you are sufficiently rewarded. If any further manna falls your way take it with a wry smile and thankfulness. Mr Kar has all ingredients of every human in him in his inner life which may be alchemy into art. Perhaps he has done so already in this ample volume of verse. But this matter each reader has to decide for himself/herself as for me there is but to wish him much luck in his earnest endeavours. 102 pp.

Hardbound. Condition: As New. New. Jai Shankar Prasad's Aansoo is an elegy composed in memory of his first wife. His love for her was so intense that it threw him out of his usual self possession but the poet recovered his balance. But before he did so he had embodied his illimitable agony in deathless melody in Aansoo. And he was thus able to save his heart from breaking and rescue his personality from utter collapse. Shakespeare has rightly said that a man must express his grief otherwise it will break his heart. Give sorrow words. The grief that does not speak Whispers the over fraught heart and bids it break. Aansoo is a lyric of love. It has all the qualities of lyrical poetry namely intensity of emotional experience spontaneity of expression subjectivity of thought and feeling unity of mood idea or sentiment loftiness of imagination depth of sensibility succinctness of scope or brevity of form resonance of rhythm and liquidity of metrical movement. Prasad was a passionate lover of woman and he found the ideal of womanhood in his own first wife. It is obvious from Aansoo she was a perfect embodiment of elation of that inborn loveliness which is characteristic of woman of the brimming simplicity innocence and purity of the child amiability of temper affability of manners inalienable modesty in spite of absolute intimacy and that self respect and quiet dignity which would not yield to the random gusts of her husband's passion. Prasad was a passionate lover not only of muliebrity but also of that pudicity which is the woman's highest ornament. Aansoo is thus a romantic lyrical elegy par excellence. It combines sweetness with sadness but leaves an optimistic impression devoid of all pessimism. Aansoo is a master piece of a classic of not only Hindi but of entire Indian literature. 86 pp.

Hardbound. Condition: As New. New. Susham Bedi's first novel The Fire Sacrifice is in the tradition of social realism in Hindi fiction that began with Premchand about the time of the First World War. Premchand and his contemporaries in other regional languages devoted most of their attention to the problems of the underprivileged but in the period following Indian Independence 1947 novelists have been more preoccupied with the middle classes their alienation and the tension between modernisation and conservative religious values. Susham Bedi brings her own originality to bear on the tradition both by treating the particular problems and cultural conflicts of Indians who have migrated to the West Everything that was tender fragrant fresh and pure. All turned to ashes. Had she herself been saved or burned to nothing like the offerings in the fire. As Guddo's family gathers in her New York apartment to welcome the New Year she re lives the ten years that have passed since she left her native India. Drawn to the USA by the promise of a glamorous life Guddo's whole family became ensnared in a struggle between Indian and American way of life. She watches as the next generation is drawn inevitably to rootless Western ways with tragic results. A fast moving novel which encapsulates the conflicts of the immigrant to the West through the eyes of a woman coming to terms with loss and challenge. Beyond giving us a dramatic and compassionate account of the problems of Indians trying to make a new life abroad The Fire Sacrifice like all good fiction reminds us of the universality of human nature and the common experience of people no matter how divergent their origins and cultures. 194 pp.

Hardbound. Condition: USED_ASNEW. New. Mannu Bhandari's writing disproves the myth that acceptance of a literary work by a wider readership is necessarily at the cost of its artistic qualities. Hailed by the most exacting and fastidious critics as a monumental work on the theme of a child's alienation from his parents and environment Mannu Bhandari's Bunty has already run into several editions and is still one of the ten bestsellers in Hindi. One of the best novels written in the post independence era on the predicament of a child and his estranged parents Bunty has been translated into all the major Indian languages. Mannu Bhandari has often been compared with Dorothy Richardosn and Katharine Mansefield. Comparison however tend to mislead. Once the apparent analogies are forgotten we see before us not the Indian version of an European writer but the totality of Indian sensibilities against the backdrop of fast changing social ethos after independence. Mannu Bhandari has a style of her own at once facile and lyrical intense and subtle and at the same time not without a sense of sharp perception and devotion to her craft. Bunty while breaking new grounds on the man and woman relationship in the context of contemporary Indian society makes a stunning impact unique in many ways. The great Hindi writer Jainendra Kumar observes In this novel Mannu Bhandari has shown remarkable discipline and sensitivity. It has a rare power to move and disturb. 222 pp.

Hardbound. Condition: As New. New. In her second novel Portrait of Mira Susham Bedi returns to the theme of her first novel The Fire Sacrifice problems faced by Indians who have left their homeland to settle in New York. But in Portrait of Mira one woman occupies the center stage throughout furthermore her social and economic status is upper class and only towards the end of the novel do financial problems occur. Mira an accomplished Indian classical dancer is torn between her dance and her conventional unfulfilling marriage. As she explores new ways of survival nothing satisfies her and her heart revolts. She is a rebel fiercely independent unwilling to accept the conventions of either Indian or American Society critical both of others and herself. The radicalism of her actions will be apparent to those who are familiar with the strictly defined role of the traditional Indian wife. But in her candid quest for the fulfilment of her personal desires and artistic ambitions she is also capable of generosity and compassion. Mira the protagonist of the novel lives at a level of feelings where in spite of repeatedly moving further she helplessly returns to the same invisible spot. An interior dialogue's intimacy and closeness is intertwined into the entire novel. This novel through introspection of a recurring but fleeting state of mind in an absolutely alien environment cuts through the layers of a sensitive mind and helps understand the conflicts and Dilemmas of an immigrant exist. 244 pp.

Hardbound. Condition: As New. New. Ramesh Chandra Shah's is a rare intellect perfectly at home with the tradition and at the same time contemporary enough to engage in a dialogue with the outsider. His insight into the twin worlds of the East and West afford him the unique vantage point of an insider outsider who can raise crucial questions regarding civilization and cultures. This is also well reflected in his present novel Poorvapar wherein he addresses the eternal dilemma of the Indian mind the acceptance or rejection of the world. It is a difficult theme explored in a novel way though the schizophrenic characters of Bansi and Bantu one passionate about life and the other disillusioned from it. Wading through the inevitable self doubt dilemma and self critique the novel arrives at the acquiescence of the unbroken flow of life inherent in the beauty of Karma. As Bantu experiences the dichotomy after all is not so discordant to him I felt there was something of me in Bansi there was a part of me sitting in penance with him in the wilderness. Our paths were different yet both necessary. 248 pp.

The author works on her stories like a painter with just a few strokes a line here and there and a blob of colour in between. She can show you daffodils blooming and daffodils singed in fire. She can take you to heights of snow for a sledgeride and pull you back. She merges her characters together wiping away the differences of gender space and time. Everything gets blended into one and many. And you find you are one of them. 222 pp.
