DESCRIPTION:
His real name was Dhanpat Rai but he is better known by his pen name Munshi Premchand. He has been read and studied both in India and abroad as one of the greatest writers of the century.
Premchand's literary career started as a freelancer in Urdu. In his initial short stories he has depicted the patriotic upsurge that was sweeping the country in the first decade of the 19th century. In 1914, Premchand started writing in Hindi. Premchand was the first Hindi author to introduce realism in his writings. He pioneered the new art form of fiction with a social purpose. He wrote of the life around him and made his readers aware of the problems of the urban middle-class and the country's villages. Besides being a great novelist, Premchand was also a social reformer and thinker. Nirmala is the story of a young girl who is married to an elderly man due to the lack of dowry after her father's death. It describes the misfortune and suspicions that she has to face and her downfall after the continuous stress and mental trauma that she has to go through. The story very well depicts the pathetic social condition of women during that era.

DESCRIPTION:
अश्वत्थामामहाभारत का शापित योद्धा इसे नियति की विडंबना ही कहेंगे कि महाभारत की गाथा का एक अत्यंत महत्वपूर्ण और अमर पात्र होने के बावजूद, अश्वत्थामा सदा उपेक्षित रहा है. पौराणिक साहित्य में अश्वत्थामा सहित और भी लोग हैं, जिन्हें अमर मन जाता है. परंतु जहाँ अन्य लोगों कोअमर होने का 'वरदान' प्राप्त हुआ, वहीँ अश्वत्थामा को अमरता 'शाप' में मिली थी! युद्ध की कथा सदा निर्मम नरसंहार, निर्दोषों की हत्या और दुष्कर्मों की काली स्याही से ही लिखी जाती है. तो फिर महाभारत जैसे महायुद्ध में अश्वत्थामा से ऐसे कौन-से दो अक्षम्य अपराध हो गये थे, जिनके लिए
श्रीकृष्ण ने उसे एकाकी व जर्जर अवस्था में हज़ारों वर्षों तक पृथ्वी पर भटकने का विकट शाप दे डाला? उसके मन में यह प्रश्न उठता है कि श्रीकृष्ण ने इतना कठोर शाप देकर उसके साथ अन्याय किया या फिर इसके पीछे भगवान का कोई दैवी प्रयोजन था? क्या अश्वत्थामा के माध्यम से भगवान कृष्ण
आधुनिक समाज को कोई संदेश देना चाहते थे? अधिकांश जगत अश्वथामा को दुर्योधन कि भांति कुटिल और दुराचारी समझता है. लेखक ने इस उपन्यास में अश्वत्थामा के जीवन के अनछुए पहलुओं को उजागर करते हुए, उस महान योद्धा के दृष्टिकोण से महाभारत की कथा को नए रूप में प्रस्तुत
किया है. साहित्य के कन्धों पर यह ज़िम्मेदारी है कि विस्मृत नायक-नायिकाओं को पुनर्स्थापित करें. 'अश्वत्थामा' इस श्रेणी में एक आवश्यक महनीय प्रयास है. - डॉ. कुमार विश्वास, कवि एवं राजनेताअर्धसत्य, मनुष्य के लिए सदैव सुख का कारण और आत्म-मंथन का विषय रहा है. 'अश्वत्थामा' का पात्र इसी द्वंद्व का प्रतीक है.- सुतपा सिकदार, लेखिका एवं फिल्म निर्माता.

DESCRIPTION:
जयशंकर प्रसाद बहुआयामी रचनाकार थे। जिनकी लेखन और रंगमंच दोनों पर अच्छी पकड़ थी। कवि, नाटककार, कहानीकार होने के साथ-साथ वह उच्चकोटि के उपन्यासकार भी थे। जयशंकर प्रसाद ने तीन उपन्यास लिखे, तितली, कंकाल और इरावती। अंतिम उपन्यास इरावती उनके निधन के कारण अधूरा रह गया। कंकाल में लेखक ने हिन्दू धर्म के ठेकेदारों की सच्चाई को उद्घाटित किया है। सत्य और मोक्ष की खोज में लगे धर्म के अनुयायी कैसे अपनी वासना में खुद फँस जाते हैं और औरों को इसका शिकार बनाते हैं। धार्मिक स्थानों के बंद दरवाज़ों के पीछे काम और वासना का यह खेल कैसे लोगों को, विशेषकर मासूम और निर्दोष लड़कियों की जि़ंदगी को तबाह कर देता है, इन सबका बहुत ही मार्मिक ताना-बाना बुना गया है इस उपन्यास में।

A TALE OF GREED, LUST AND REDEMPTION
The good days are over on Dalal Street and the past comes to haunt those who didn’t play it by the book.
Rekha, Amit, Satya and their boss, Nitin, struggle to maintain their sanity in the dynamic world of office politics, fuelled by their mad drive for the high life. Unfortunately, the skills needed to survive this fast-paced corporate maze are not taught at B-schools.
Follow these bankers as they navigate choppy financial markets at work and volatile personal lives, manoeuvring through aggressive competition and covert deals—bosses stealing credit, subordinates thrown to the wolves for “greater good”, sexual transgressions and booze-filled nights.
To add to the mayhem, a sudden crash in the global markets sends their lives into a tailspin, testing their strength of character. Who will win and who will lose? Who will stay and who will quit?

This 126 page book attempts to unravel the mysteries behind Goddess worship. With stories on Adi-Maya-Shakti, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Parvati, Kali, Durga, it speaks of India’s long association with female deities, and the relevance of Shakti in these modern times. Drawing from a rich tradition of Shakta imagery, Indian philosophy, history, folklore and myth, Devi is one of the finest introductions to feminist theology.
