A Flutter In The Colony - Sandeep Ray

56 0 1

In 1956, the Senguptas travel from Calcutta to rural Malaya to start afresh. In their new hamlet of anonymity, the couple gradually forget past troubles and form new ties. But this second home is not entirely free and gentle. A complex, racially charged society, it is on the brink of independence even as communist insurgents hover on the periphery. How much should a newcomer meddle before it starts to destroy him? Shuttling in time and temper between the rubber plantations of Malaya and the anguish-filled years of pre-Partition Bengal, between the Malayan Emergency and Direct Action Day, between indifference and lust, A Flutter in the Colony is a tender, resonant chronicle of a family struggling to remain together in the twilight of Empire in Asia.…

Delhi in the Nineties. And this time, it's going to be Gudia's summer. So what if she's the quintessential awkward middle child? So what if it seems like everything - from the hair sprouting on her legs to teachers making her life miserable - is conspiring against her? She's taking matters into her own hands, and there's no way that she's going to fail. After all, there are three things Gudia is obsessed with - Basketball, the Boy with the American accent...and Winning. But in her desire to win this campaign of middle-school one-upmanship and conceal her plummeting grades, Gudia might just lose all that's important to her - including herself. Best-selling author Yashodhara Lal is back with this funny, bittersweet and entirely relatable story about growing up; of that summer of innocence, when the world was simpler, and even our problems seemed sweeter.…

Rashid, chef and restauranteur, has a complicated relationship with his father, who demands nothing short of perfection - especially now, as he entrusts Rashid with the family's secret recipe, one that made his own father famous as the great Junaid of Fatehgarh. The family's disappointment comes as no surprise to Rashid when he falls in love with Alice Munro: a firang, a Christian, and a woman with whom his relationship seems to transcend lifetimes. With the passing of Alice's great-grandmother and the inheritance of her diaries, the couple immerse themselves in her story, set in the last years of the Raj, discovering more about themselves and their heritage in ways neither could have ever dreamt of.

The popular names of many yogic asanas - from Virbhadra-asana and Hanuman-asana to Matsyendra-asana, Kurma-asana and Ananta-asana - are based on characters and personages from Indian mythology. Who were these mythological characters, what were their stories, and how are they connected to yogic postures? Devdutt Pattanaik's newest book Yoga Mythology (co-written with international yoga practitioner Matt Rulli) retells the fascinating tales from Hindu, Buddhist and Jain lore that lie behind the yogic asanas the world knows so well; in the process he draws attention to an Indic worldview based on the concepts of eternity, rebirth, liberation and empathy that has nurtured yoga for thousands of years.…
