DESCRIPTION: 

हिन्दी के जाने-माने व्यंग्यकार शरद जोशी के व्यंग्य जहाँ पाठक के मन को गुदगुदाते हैं वहीं सामाजिक, आर्थिक और राजनीतिक विसंगतियों को दर्शाते हुए करारी चोट भी करते हैं। इतना ही नहीं प्रशासन द्वारा आम लोगों की समस्याओं को हल करने की नाकाम कोशिशों पर कटाक्ष करने से भी नहीं चूकते। ‘तिलस्म’ में लेखक ने इसी चिर-परिचित शैली द्वारा समाज में फैले अंधविश्वासों पर प्रहार किया है। साथ ही रोज़मर्रा के जीवन की छोटी-छोटी किंतु महत्त्वपूर्ण स्थितियों को नई दिशा देते हुए जिस पैनी दृष्टि का परिचय दिया है वह पाठक को सहज ही प्रभावित करती है। 21 मई, 1931 को उज्जैन में जन्मे शरद जोशी का निधन 5 सितंबर, 1991 को मुंबई में हुआ। ‘छोटी सी बात’ और ‘उत्सव’ आदि चर्चित फिल्मों की पटकथा लिखने के अलावा उन्होंने कई टीवी धारावाहिक भी लिखे।

Tilism-e-Hoshruba is an epic narrative of the adventures of the legendary Persian hero Emir Hamza—the protagonist of Hamza Nama—his sons and grandsons. The epic opens with the commander-in-chief of the Islamic army, Hamza, pursuing Laqa, who makes false claims to divinity. Laqa takes refuge in Kohistan, adjacent to the enchanted land of Hoshruba, ruled by the formidable King of Sahirs, Afrasiyab Jadoo. Afrasiyab reveres Laqa and deputes his sahirs or wizards to help him fight Hamza. Hamza’s grandson Asad then sets out to conquer Hoshruba, assisted by the clever trickster Amar, who possesses divine artefacts such as a cloak of invisibility and a magic pouch containing parallel worlds. Aided by powerful allies and beset at every step by magical snares, dangerous enchantments and seductive sorceresses, the Islamic army finally conquers Hoshruba. Tilism-e-Hoshruba has enthralled generations of readers with its chivalrous heroes, breathtakingly beautiful princesses, powerful sahirs, sahiras and demons. This brilliant condensed translation by Shahnaz Aijazuddin sensitively reinterprets the highly Persianized Urdu of the original text into this eminently readable book that retains the essence of the original.

A couple of years after his father's death, ten-year-old Ruskin travels to Dehradun to spend his holidays with his new family. As he reacquaints himself with his mother, now remarried and with a busy social life, his stepfather and new siblings, a pensive Ruskin longs for his father's company, his stamp collection and the old gramophone. Trying to escape this unfamiliar place, he immerses himself in books and explores the forest glades, canals and bazaars of the little town, forming some unlikely friendships on the way.
After the much-loved Looking for the Rainbow, the master storyteller lends another backward glance at his boyhood years-a vacation that took place over seventy winters ago-remembering his days with rare humour, remarkable charm and twinges of heartache.

Ruskin Bond

"Ruskin Bond’s first novel, The Room on the Roof, written when he was seventeen, won the John Llewellyn Rhys Memorial Prize in 1957. Since then he has written several novellas (including Vagrants in the Valley, A Flight of Pigeons and Delhi Is Not Far), essays, poems and children’s books, many of which have been published by Penguin India. He has also written over 500 short stories and articles that have appeared in a number of magazines and anthologies. He received the Sahitya Akademi Award in 1993 and the Padma Shri in 1999. Ruskin Bond was born in Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh, and grew up in Jamnagar, Dehradun, Delhi and Shimla. As a young man, he spent four years in the Channel Islands and London. He returned to India in 1955 and has never left the country since. He now lives in Landour, Mussoorie, with his adopted family."

The beautiful Warli painting has painted the serene beauty of a rural setting with much beauty and colour. The painting is full of life, as the rural folks have been shown moving here and there with much enthusiasm. The natural dyes have been mixed in a most balance manner giving the painting an extra attraction. The river flowing in the middle of the village, the long human chain have made the beautiful Warli painting even more beautiful.

The colourful Patachitra painting depicts the ecstasy people have during the time of festival. It depicts various gods and goddesses along with their devotees with musical instruments. Temples with the idols of the gods and goddesses are also painted. Derived from the Sanskrit words patta (a piece of cloth), chitra (painting or picture), Patachitra is a folk art form drawn on a piece of silk, cotton or any other fabric, portraying traditional motifs and imageries of religion and society.

The leisure time of the couple has been painted by the Batik artist using vibrant colour patterns and strong lines. The lines used here are quite sharp and this gives a beautiful effect to the painting. Applying the wax resist and systematic cracking are the key to a beautiful art piece. The characteristic batik effect is created by cracking of wax on the lighter hues and seeping in of the darker colors though them. Once the wax is removed it leaves behind an impression of beauty.
