                          ‘If you live in the hills of India, it is only a matter of time before you meet a ghost…’Vintage storyteller Ruskin Bond has created some unforgettable characters in his novels and stories, but perhaps the most memorable and unusual among them are the ghosts and spirits he has encountered. These ghosts are not always horrific; they are mysterious and often benevolent, or lonely creatures looking for company among humans. Collected in these pages are new stories written specifically for this volume—including Captain Young’s Ghost—and classics such as A Face in the Dark and The Haunted Bicycle. Here you will find the spirit of a captain from the British army who returns to the town he founded and rues the lack of Irish whisky; a little boy, long dead, who continues to guide passers-by on treacherous mountain routes; a heartbroken young girl of long ago who seduces young men with her song, and another who longs for a family and some friends.Set in the hills and foothills of North India—the perfect haunt for ghosts and spirits—this collection by the master storyteller will leave you spellbound.

                          DESCRIPTION: 

                          In the village of Takht Hazara, the musically gifted Deedho Ranjha struggles against family and society. He rejects the pursuit of wealth and power as the measure of a man’s worth. In distant Jhang, the spirited Heer Syal is an accomplished warrior who fearlessly challenges the norms of her community. Heer and Ranjha are destined to meet and fall in love—the former chastised for her ‘manly’ pursuits and the latter ridiculed for his lack thereof.Told from multiple perspectives, set against the lush riverbanks and rugged countryside of West Punjab, this is a wise, passionate and lyrical retelling of one of the subcontinent’s most beloved epics. A rich cast of characters—Kaido Langra, Jhang’s seemingly pious conscience-keeper; Malki, the mother of a daughter she cannot understand; Seida Khera, Heer’s hapless fiancé; a silent, watchful crow; a flock of excitable pigeons who bear witness and a philosophical goat—all play their part in bringing this stirring story to life

                          DESCRIPTION: 

                          Inspired by the 1970 Bhola cyclone, in which half a million people perished overnight, The Storm seamlessly interweaves five love stories that, together, chronicle sixty years of Bangladeshi history. ~ Shahryar, a recent PhD graduate and the father of nine-year-old Anna, must leave the US when his visa expires. In their last remaining weeks together, we learn his story, beginning in a village on the Bay of Bengal, where a poor fisherman and his wife are preparing to face a storm of historic proportions. Their story intersects with those of a Japanese fighter pilot, a British female doctor stationed in Burma during World War II and a privileged couple in Calcutta who leave everything behind to move to East Pakistan following the Partition of India. The structure of this riveting novel mimics the storm itself—building to a series of revelatory and moving climaxes as it explores the many ways in which families love, betray, honor and sacrifice for one another. At once grounded in history and fantastically imaginative, The Storm is a sweeping epic in the tradition of Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner and Rohinton Mistry’s A Fine Balance, by an immensely talented new voice in international fiction.

                          'I am Rani Jindan, Mother of the Khalsa. That is my identity. That is my fate.'While we have all heard tales of Rani Lakshmi Bai and Padmavati, not many of us are familiar with another Indian queen.Daughter of the royal kennel keeper, the beautiful Jindan Kaur went on to become Maharaja Ranjit Singh's youngest and last queen; his favourite. She became regent when her son Dalip, barely six years old, unexpectedly inherited the throne. Sharp-eyed, stubborn, passionate, and dedicated to protecting her son's heritage, Jindan distrusted the British and fought hard to keep them from annexing Punjab. Defying tradition, she stepped out of the zenana, cast aside the veil and conducted state business in public. Addressing her Khalsa troops herself, she inspired her men in two wars against the 'firangs'. Her power and influence were so formidable that the British, fearing an uprising, robbed the rebel queen of everything she had, including her son. She was imprisoned and exiled. But that did not crush her indomitable will.An exquisite love story of a king and a commoner, a cautionary tale about loyalty and betrayal, and a powerful parable of the indestructible bond between mother and child, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni's unforgettable novel brings alive one of the most fearless women of the nineteenth century, an inspiration for our times.

                          The Secret is a self-help book regarding the power of positive thinking by Rhonda Byrne. The book suggests the notion that like attracts the like, which means if you emit positive energy, it will be very beneficial because you will attract positive things to you. Byrne proposed that positive thinking magnets positive outcomes. Simply believing in what you want to acquire or become will become of you. The book portrays that the secret is mainly about the law of attraction but it also highlights gratitude and visualization. The primary technique of ask, believe and receive is explained further by stating some facts from some of the Secret’s practitioners. The book promotes encouragement for people in times of trials or deepens their urge to succeed. Happiness, wealth, success in relationships, and even health improvement are all justified as achievable by the application of the so-called secret.

                          It is not possible to surmise when exactly Tagore started writing Jibonsmriti(My Reminiscences). It is generally believed that after the publication of the play Raja (King, 1910), he was going through the first draft of Jibonsmriti.Jibonsmriti, was translated into English by Tagore’s nephew, Surendranath Tagore, though retouched and slightly changed by Rabindranath himself. It was serialised in RamanandaChattopadhyay’s The Modern Review under the title My Reminiscences from January to December, 1916. To thwart the attempt by any foreign publisher to publish it, all the issues of The Modern Review carried the declaration, ‘All Rights Reserved. Copyrighted in the United States of America’. Interestingly, Rabindranath himself advised Ramananda Chattopadhyay to mail one copy each of the issues of The Modern Review carrying My Reminiscences to W. B. Yeats and Ernest Rhys. In April, 1917, it was published as a book by MacMillan, New York, with a colour portrait by Sasi Kumar Hesh as the frontispiece, apart from 12 paintings by GagnendranathTagore.This book Rabindranath has etched in words many of his primary experiences about his future poetry, plays and novels. A surging passion for being one with Nature, a sense of imagination-filled solitariness even in the midst of a crowd, a consciousness of the concrete and yet non-recognition of its weight—all these aspects of the book inform his later creations. In that sense, My Reminiscences can be called an introduction to the entire Tagorean canon.

                          From the author of the Glass Palace, the widely-acclaimed bestseller. The Hungry Tide is a rich, exotic saga set in Calcutta and in the vast archipelago of islands in the Bay of Bengal.An Indian myth says that when the river Ganges first descended from the heavens, the force of the cascade was so great that the earth would have been destroyed if it had not been for the god Shiva, who tamed the torrent by catching it in his dreadlocks. It is only when the Ganges approaches the Bay of Bengal that it frees itself and separates into thousands of wandering strands. The result is the Sundarbans, an immense stretch of mangrove forest, a half-drowned land where the waters of the Himalayas merge with the incoming tides of the sea.It is this vast archipelago of islands that provides the setting for Amitav Ghosh’s new novel. In the Sundarbans the tides reach more than 100 miles inland and every day thousands of hectares of forest disappear only to re-emerge hours later. Dense as the mangrove forests are, from a human point of view it is only a little less barren than a desert. There is a terrible, vengeful beauty here, a place teeming with crocodiles, snakes, sharks and man-eating tigers. This is the only place on earth where man is more often prey than predator.And it is into this terrain that an eccentric, wealthy Scotsman named Daniel Hamilton tried to create a utopian society, of all races and religions and conquer the might of the Sundarbans. In January 2001, a small ship arrives to conduct an ecological survey of this vast but little-known environment and the scientists on board begin to trace the journeys of the descendants of this society.

                                  It is a union of three beautiful feelings. The first is our own happiness and progress. The second felling is towards our family, the obligations, the indebtness. One has to try to repay it to the best of his/her ability. The third is the unseen flow, to help the society progress, the society of which we are members. Ones life can be said fulfilled only when the indebtedness of ourselves, that of the family and of the society is satisfied at the same time. If there is no conflict between these three then we can say that the person is successful in his life. V. S. Khandekar's book reveals these secrets of human life in his novel. There are many characters in this novel Of them, Anand believes only in sacrifice, the traditional belief; Appa and Bhayya are those incompetent people who shade off their responsiblities and justify themselves by making a single person shoulder it. Manik is hopeless, literate girl but has always failed in recognising a good mind, Usha is yet another character who has been aloof, never expressing feelings, good or bad. What are these characters eilling us? They tell us that following the customs and traditions blindlessly is harmful not only to the person following them but also to the society at large. It was in 1939 that the author stated his views as follows, 'when we talk about the values in a man's life then sacrifice is alway highly regarded than enduring. But the sacrifice should always be for a noble cause.' Do not you think that this view is true even today?

                                  This is a collection of 7 stories. It was published after a gap of 56 years. Many thought that Khandekar has lost his ability to write. Some criticized him. But he was used to everything. He knew the limits of all the commentators. He was writing during these 56 years but he could never complete it. Through half written articles he used to think about the values and then used to stop writing the article. He shifted to Kolhapur during this period. While in Kolhapur he missed the seashore and the hills at Shiroda. Apart from this he had started writing scripts for movies. Then started the 2nd world war which killed the humanity. After a period of 5 years he wrote his first story "Maunvrat`. He started writing again but he was not satisfied with the new social pattern. He believed that socialism will bring happiness but for that the old pattern of socialism should be demolished completely. He tried to search for the new and virtues which would provide healthy atmosphere to everybody. He tried to attempt this through his stories included in this collection.

                                  Every time, she sent him a letter, she sent a small flower of 'bakul' for him, without fail. Her letter always brought back some special memories for Shridhar. He used to get lost in the memories with the small flower in his hand. The flower represented her. Her mild manners, her simplicity, the fragrance around her, and the chastity in her eyes along with the love every single tender thing was present in the flower. Her personality was devoid of ego. He had collected each flower from her letter. He had stored all those flowers in a small bag. Every day, he kept the bag beneath his pillow. Every letter brought a new hope for him, saying that the flower will be a lifelong partner. Sudha Murthy, has pictured this very sensitively.

                                  As the ship ‘Doly’ docks into the yard at Nukuheva Port, two of its sailors decide to run away from its atrocities. They are scared to travel back on the worn out ship on a life-long voyage. Instead, they want to enjoy life with the tribal people there. Initially, when the two had joined the ship, they were shown many red and juicy carrots. But, over the period, they realized that the officers aboard would often break almost every rule. The treatment given to the lower ranks was hideous. Exploitation had become the first rule of conduct for the high-ranking officers. As the voyage continued for a very long period, everyone was anxious to see the land. While traveling towards the Markisus islanders, two of its sailors Tomo-the author and his friend Tobo decide to run away. As they dropped the anchor at Nukuhewa, the captain permitted them to stroll around the port. They saw a golden opportunity to fulfil their plan. To stay away from the ship, they start running. They cannot afford to halt at any place. Initially, they enter the Taipi region. All they have with them are a few loaves and biscuits. They survive the hardships but after travelling thus for a week or so, the Taipi detain them. For four months they remain with the Taipi. How did they survive during this period is worth reading.
