How deep is the love of a good woman? Sudha Murty unpacks the love of three different women, in how they go against society's demands for selfless acts. Each woman knows the struggles they face to find water every day. Each woman knows that the power to bring water to homes lies only in the hands of powerful men.

Thoughts from the Outer Edge of My Mind

By: V. Sreenivasa Murthy

It is said, The outer edge of the mind is where subjective perception meets collective feeling and is where the spiritual realm begins. The three major aspects of lifeLiving well, inevitable part of life: the death, and life after deathare described in three different contexts with a philosophical touch to make the reader to read less and to know more. In Maya the Mohini, which is a total fiction, the author has attempted to depict the life after death of a young lady who will appear as a spirit to fulfill her unfulfilled desires. She finds a person and dissolves and remains in him as a positive energy. This is conceptualized based on the belief that the soul will not attain eternal peace until the body has fulfilled all its desires. In Dialogue with Death God, the author has tried to sketch the human nature of ignoring the facts that death is certain and death doesnt blow trumpet by living in the illusion of materialistic world. The story has been told to give insight to spiritual realm. Age of a Person is a thought for a better quality of life through living a holistic lifestyle, for which spirituality is the way.

A Woman's Ritual

(Penguin Petit)

By: Sudha Murthy

Shraddha is a ritual where once a year, three generations of elders who have passed away are venerated by their loved ones. When Sudha Murthy went to perform the shraddha for her father, she was turned away, because she was a woman. "No woman has ever performed this ritual," the pandit said. Sudha Murty questions the importance of meaningless ritual while still being devoted to tradition - what does it mean to be a religious woman in the 21st century? A searching and powerful piece on reaching a balance between old and the new as a woman.

Happiness in Change

Lakshmi’s Story

By: Lalitha Murthy

“The only constant in life is change,” said Heraclitus in ancient times. Lakshmi, at 65 years of age, looks back on events that impacted her beliefs and reflects on the sociological and technical revolution that has taken place in India. She observes and understands the impact these dynamic changes have had on her and other Indians. “What to do? You are a girl, and I can’t let you do these things.” Lakshmi grew up hearing her parents say this to her many times. Whether it was higher studies or travel, her gender seemed to be an impediment. As she grew up, she found this attitude slowly changing. All her life Lakshmi had battled many demons, and now, she is a successful entrepreneur. But is this what she wanted, or has happiness eluded her?

Stories Varied - A book of short stories

By: BS Murthy

This collection of short stories deals with women's dilemmas in the Indian social milieu accompanied with unique denouements. While 'Ilaa's Ire' contrasts woman's lot of the day with her eminence in the Vedic Age, '201' Qualms" depicts her predicament, torn between personal loyalty and citizen's responsibility. As "?" addresses woman's marital stress in an alien land, 'Cupid's Clue' is about her acting on rebound in her native place. Even as 'Autumn Love' lets woman discover the marital void in her life, 'A Touchy Affair' makes her amenable to her man's other woman. Just as 'Love's How's That' inflames woman's old flame, 'A Hearty Turn' brings her innate lesbian leanings to the fore. If 'Love Jihad' bridges lovers' religious divide with a secular plank, 'Tenth Nook' creates her marital gulf on the materialistic ground. While 'Eleventh Hour' is about woman's lust for love, 'Twelfth Tale' underscores her zest for power.

Crossing the Mirage - Passing through Youth

By: BS Murthy

If passing through youth was like crossing the mirage of life for Chandra and Nithya, it proved to be chasing the mirage of love for Sathya and Prema though for plain Vasavi, Chandra's pitiable sibling, it was the end of the road. As life brings Chandra, who suffers from an inferiority complex for his perceived ugliness, and Nithya, who was bogged down being jilted by Vasu, together, they script their fate of fulfillment. And as poetic justice would have it, Sathya, who caused Prema's heart burn, himself was led down the garden path by Kala, doing a Sathya on Sathya. Just not that, life has in store just deserts for Vasu owing to Nithya's retribution as he tries to stalk her. Besides, after many a fictional twist and turn, the way the story ends, challenges the perception that fact is stranger than fiction.

A BETTER INDIA A BETTER WORLD

By: N R Narayana Murthy

Visit the website for A Better India; A Better World; here. With one of the highest GDP growth rates in the world and an array of recent achievements in technology; industry and entrepreneurship; India strides confidently towards the future. But; in the world’s largest democracy; not everyone is equally fortunate. More than 300 million Indians are still prey to hunger; illiteracy and disease; and 51 per cent of India’s children are still undernourished. What will it take for India to bridge this great divide? When will the fruits of development reach the poorest of the poor; and wipe the tears from the eyes of every man; woman and child; as Mahatma Gandhi had dreamt? And how should this; our greatest challenge ever; be negotiated? In this extraordinarily inspiring and visionary book; N.R. Narayana Murthy; who pioneered; designed and executed the Global Delivery Model that has become the cornerstone of India’s success in information technology services outsourcing; shows us that a society working for the greatest welfare of the greatest number—samasta jananam sukhino bhavantu—must focus on two simple things: values and good leadership. Drawing on the remarkable Infosys story and the lessons learnt from the two decades of post-reform India; Narayana Murthy lays down the ground rules that must be followed if future generations are to inherit a truly progressive nation. Built on Narayana Murthy’s lectures delivered around the world; A Better India: A Better World is a manifesto for the youth; the architects of the future; and a compelling argument for why a better India holds the key to a better world.

Historicizing Fiction/Fictionalizing History

Historicizing Fiction/Fictionalizing History

Representation in Select Novels of Umberto Eco and Orhan Pamuk

By: Nishevita J. Murthy

Historicizing Fiction/Fictionalizing History brings together two authors, Umberto Eco and Orhan Pamuk, not frequently studied in comparison. By focusing on their non/fictional works to present a unique study of the methods and concepts of representation, Murthy uses contemporary historical novels to examine fictional depictions of reality, and provides a fresh perspective on representation studies in literature. Written in an accessible style, and tapping into fields as varied as literary and critical theory, the historical novel, postmodernism, and historiography, Historicizing Fiction/Fictionalizing History considers the ways in which reality, as discourse, confronts a text-external reality, and how this confrontation affects the autonomy of the fictional space – topics that remain persistently problematic areas within literary studies. Eco’s The Name of the Rose and Baudolino, and Pamuk’s My Name is Red and Snow, with their topical concerns and methods of representation, promise a rewarding comparative study. This book provides an early critical framework for these four works, placing them within the rubric of the postmodernist historical novel, as creative works that also comment on the process of literary writing through their recreation of historical pasts. In this respect, Historicizing Fiction/Fictionalizing History promises to be an engaging read in literary criticism and historiography, as well as a handy companion for Eco and Pamuk enthusiasts.

Our Pictures, Our Words

A Visual Journey Through the Women's Movement

By: Laxmi Murthy,Rajashri Dasgupta

Vibrant, dynamic, spirited and forceful. The contemporary women’s movement in India, which began in the late 1970s protested against the dark times, the violence and the misogyny. It also colourfully celebrated liberation, solidarity among women and breaking the shackles of patriarchy. It sang, performed and painted, to draw attention to the burning issues of the time: dowry death, widow immolation, acid throwing and rape. Over the past three decades, the women’s movement has matured and broadened to include a gamut of issues related to women’s health, sexuality, the environment, literacy, the impact of religion and communalism on women’s lives, political participation, labour rights, disability rights, class and caste issues, and many more. Indeed, feminism meant looking at the world through women’s eyes. This book constructs a pictorial history of the complex and multi-layered women’s movement through its visual representation: posters, drawings, pamphlets, reports, brochures, stickers, wall-writing and photographs. The posters reproduced here are part of Zubaan’s Poster Women project, which has attempted to locate and archive as many posters of the movement as possible to be able to visually map the women’s movement and its concerns. The Poster Women archive can be accessed at www.posterwomen.org. Published by Zubaan.

There are lots of misconceptions about Diabetes among people. With these constraints in mind, healthy blood sugar cannot be attained, which leads to dreaded complications.

Through these pages, the book advises many practices concerning INPUT=OUTPUT. This will enhance the understanding of what to do. Essentially, this book empowers the patient to help themselves lead a healthy and good-quality lifestyle. This book is written with a sincere aim of educating patients with diabetes. PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE.

NTR

A Political Biography

By: Ramachandra Murthy Kondubhatla

In the year of N.T. Rama Rao's birth centenary in 2023, this is a comprehensive political biography that traces his journey from a remote Andhra village to the forefront of the national stage via a thriving career in Telugu films. NTR, as he was popularly known, had an extraordinary ability to galvanize the masses, as much to watch his films as to support the party he founded - the Telugu Desam. His life and career can be divided in two distinct halves: his stellar performance as divine characters in mythological films and his tryst with politics. NTR's transformation from a matinee idol of Telugu cinema to the political darling of the masses was swift and seamless. This book uncovers the many facets of NTR's life, and his impact on not just on Andhra but on national politics.

Is that true?' Even immigration officers degradingly interrogate her because she looks and dresses 'different'. A couple of years later, she is once again travelling to the US. Will she have to face the same demeaning stereotypes again? Read on to find out.

The Call

(Penguin Petit)

By: Sudha Murthy

When Bharat takes over his father’s shop, he doesn't know that the factory sends over the 'defect' goods to a charity, as a gift. The system has been in place for years, but yet when he sees his goods leaving without his permission, he demands that Sudha Murty come to him in person and make a request anew. Sudha knows that he is acting out, a child having to fill his father’s shoes, desperate to be seen as important, to earn respect. What should she do? Emotionally compelling and subtly generous, Sudha Murty beautifully articulates the difference between fighting and forgiving.
