Through the Ages, women the world over, have lived under subjugation; women in India have been subjected to various atrocities as well. Nonetheless, despite the odds stacked against them, many have become shining examples for others to follow; not for them the phrase: Frailty thy name is woman. So it is with the characters, whose stories appear on the pages of this book. Their names may be ordinary, but their show of resilience is extraordinary. Kavita, Pushpa, Poonam, Deepa, Charu, Aru and Madhuri, hailing from different cities and different strata of the Indian Society, all run into problems not of their making. From fighting to keep their foetuses alive, to confronting the problem of impotency, to avoiding unwarranted advances, to being involved in murders, to giving birth to a baby who talks about his past, to taking care of a son who has cancer, to sustaining a brain haemorrhage, to having a tumour and a baby growing together, to being looked down upon as a divorcee - they face it all. But, their never-say-die attitude stands them in good stead. They tackle their individual problems and come up triumphant.

Grandpa's Tales of Ahmednagar – Part 1

By: Sukumar Chatterjee

In 1947, the Chatterjee family moves to Ahmednagar from Kolkata, only to find that the old city has lost its splendor. They make it their home and the children in the family, Swapan, Sukumar, Ashish and Jayashree, try to adjust in the new city. The book takes you through the children’s escapades; from going to picnics with friends, shooting arrows at each other and playing surparambya, to befriending a donkey that went to their school, they have plenty of adventure. More importantly the children learn about the history of Ahmednagar, from the tales they hear from Grandpa. Does the family respond, as history beckons in Grandpa's Tales of Ahmednagar?

The Nonsense World of Sukumar Ray

By: Sukumar Ray

‘If you hear this, you will find your heads are getting muddled. Some of you will fathom fully, some will stay befuddled’ The Bengali language has never been quite such a living, breathing creature of whimsy as in Sukumar Ray’s hands. His creations—wild and wicked, dreamy and delirious—have thrilled children and adults alike. This selection offers you the best of his world—pun-riddled, fun-fiddled poetry from Abol Tabol and Khai-Khai, stories of schoolboy pranks from Pagla Dashu, of madcap explorers from Heshoram Hushiyarer Diary and the unforgettable harum-scarum classic Haw-Jaw-Baw-Raw-Law—for the first time in its entirety. All the stories and poems are accompanied by Sukumar Ray’s inimitable illustrations. Sampurna Chattarji’s vibrant translation captures the freewheeling play of sound and sense we associate with Ray’s writings, and promises to win him a whole new generation of admirers.
