Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

In Unmoored, Ramachandran Usha crafts an intimate exploration of migration and belonging. Three women—Ayesha, Indu, and Ameera—return to Chennai from the Gulf, each looking to reunite with the loved ones they left behind. Despite differences in religion, social status and age, they are also united in their quest for a true sense of home. Usha’s novella dwells on the seldom-told yet pervasive story of women who travel to the Middle East and beyond, driven by the need to secure their families’ futures. The protagonists of the two short stories featured in this collection, ‘Khushka’, and ‘Success’, have much in common with the women of Unmoored, even as they grapple with crises of faith and finance.

Reach Out To The Stars

Celebrities I met in my life journey

By: P. A. Ramachandran

The memories of some people I will never forget are the ones that directly or indirectly influenced my life in this book. The personalities I described in this book include Indian presidents, movie stars, chief ministers and writers. - P.A RAMACHANDRAN This book carries poetic language, authentic presentation, and accurate descriptions of several events. In it, we observe sights from almost six decades ago. Chaliyar River and its abuse come across as an ever-present undercurrent in this book. We get to read about the pollution of that river and the actions against the Gwalior Rayons who defiled the river. Many of these are things that no one has revealed in the public sphere to date. As Ramachandran was the Regional Engineer in the Pollution Control Board back then, he was well aware of these issues political and bureaucratic plots. - THAMPI ANTHONY

Grains, Greens, and Grated Coconuts

Recipes and Remembrances of a Vegetarian Legacy

By: Ammini Ramachandran

Other books have ably explored India's far southern territory, but Ms. Ramachandran reveals amazing range and depth in Kerala's Hindu vegetarian traditions."-The New York Times review "Ammini Ramachandran, a Texas based food writer with roots in the Indian state of Kerala, has self published an authoritative cookbook cum memoir, Grains, Greens, and Grated Coconuts, on that region's elaborate, nuanced cuisine."-Saveur February, 2008 "Recipes that make me want to rush to the kitchen, intriguing techniques that could be used with other cuisines, fascinating personal stories about growing up in a big Kerala household, all embedded in a deep understanding of Kerala as a pivot of Asian history. It's a wonderful tribute to Kerala and a stunning gift for the rest of us."-Rachel Laudan, author of The Food of Paradise: Exploring Hawaii's Culinary Heritage "Grains, Greens, and Grated Coconuts is a jewel of a cookbook-from its authentic recipes (many published here for the first time) to Ammini Ramachandran's evocative personal anecdotes of Kerala's culinary traditions. It is at once scholarly, yet accessible, and especially charming for its delicious recipes and intriguing stories from the royal kitchens of Kochi."-Grace Young, author of The Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen

An Invitation to Those Who Love Rivers

By: P.A. Ramachandran

Kaveri appears to be moving rather slowly in Thanjavur Thiruvayyar stretch. Can’t blame her because, who will be in a hurry to leave the place echoing the sublime melodious music ‘Jagadananda karaka’ in ‘natta raga’, and ‘Enthro Mahanubhavalu’, the fifth song of Pancharatna keerthana in ‘sri raga’?

LIFE Before, Through & After COVID-19

This too Shall Pass

By: P.A. Ramachandran

This is not a biography. But if the pictures scattered in the book are arranged, it will be a good autobiography. This is not a science book, but if the scientific knowledge available in it is collected, it will become a popular science book. This is not a travelogue. This book is a carpet with many strings attached. This Book contains author's ruminations on the eventful professional life spanning over five decades. As an Engineer, he had worked in various capacities in many countries. The author faced many personal challenges along the way. It includes his face-off with scourge of the century, the COVID-19 virus. It culminated during his quarantine. Preceding this home imprisonment, he visited Singapore, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Dubai. During these trips, some of his resolute escorts for decades accompanied him. He could never shake them of despite his best efforts. they were diabetes, heart diseases, stroke, Bronchitis, and macular degeneration. His travel to those countries coincided with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in each one of them. It was a quirk of fate as if coronavirus was his pursuit.

The Journey to Adi Kailash

By: M.K. Ramachandran

Bestselling author M.K. Ramachandran is well-known for his unique travelogues. Not only does he beautifully recount his journey but he also delves into history and culture, tying in various threads to show the reader the many elements that make India what it is. The Journey to Adi Kailash is no different. While detailing his trek to one of the most revered mountains of India, Ramachandran includes interpretations of our history, culture, traditions, the Puranas and the Upanishads, as well as contributions by great sadhus, sages and rishis. He weaves in interesting stories—of how the Asuras came to India, the ancient technology of turning metal to gold, the ninety-five-year-old woman who is well-versed in the 144 courses of Kriya Yoga, the yogi who acquires the power to fly into the sky . . . The Journey to Adi Kailash is compelling reading, and a book that holds a mirror to the greatness of India.

Inside Indian Schools

The Enigma of Equity and Quality

By: Vimala Ramachandran

After 70 years after independence, the tragic reality of Indian schools is that who we are, where we live, how much we earn and our gender influences the kind of education we will get. In this collection of essays the author explores the contours of a school system that is facing a crisis of legitimacy. While India aspires to march towards a knowledge driven society and economy, millions of young people are left behind. Those who can afford march out of government schools only to realize that the private schools are no better. The schools they attend leaves them with little knowledge or skill, a very low self-esteem and a bleak future. This book argues that the struggle for equality in education, is ultimately a struggle for quality – both being two sides of the same coin. Please note: Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
