Book Synopsis The House of Lakshmi Chatterjee by : Helen Lavinia Underwood
Download or read book The House of Lakshmi Chatterjee written by Helen Lavinia Underwood and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-10-26 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The House of Lakshmi Chatterjee takes place on a single day in 1968. Set in Calcutta, India, it explores the mind of a young woman–an American expatriate—as she tries to come to terms with who she is in the midst of a world she could scarcely have imagined. The narrative alternates between present and past – between her efforts to plan a party for the evening of September 29 and her memories of previous years. Despite herself, she becomes “house-mother” to a motley collection of people--including a ghost!--who are drawn, for a variety of reasons, to the House of Lakshmi Chatterjee in the heart of Calcutta. Together, they represent a broad cultural spectrum–Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Tibetan Buddhist, and atheist. Even Mother Teresa gets into the act!

Book Synopsis Lakshmi’s Secret Diary by : Ari Gautier
Download or read book Lakshmi’s Secret Diary written by Ari Gautier and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-10 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeking to escape captivity, Lakshmi the temple elephant sets out on a stirring journey toward freedom. On her way, she briefly experiences life as a film star and encounters a colorful cast including a three-legged dog named Tripod Dog Baba, other elephants in the Bandipur Forest, a chameleon facing an existential crisis, a moon who dances with an elephant, and a flying fish called Alphonse. Lakshmi’s Secret Diary is a remarkable Indian Francophone novel set in Pondicherry, the former capital of French India. Blending philosophical meditations, retellings of Sanskrit mythology, and social critique, Ari Gautier tells the story of Lakshmi’s attempt to escape her fate. From the point of view of animals, the novel explores concepts of destiny, freedom, and identity. It illuminates the paradoxes of animal-human relations in India, where animals are both abused and worshiped, and provides an imaginative critique of the caste system. Gautier’s vivid portrait of Pondicherry brings to life the religious, cultural, culinary, and visual diversity of the city’s districts and sheds light on the little-known history of French colonialism in India. An afterword explores issues such as reincarnation and Indian translation traditions in relation to the novel. At once tragic and comic, satirical and surreal, Lakshmi’s Secret Diary is a surprising, compelling, and moving novel from a gifted storyteller.

Book excerpt: "A thoroughly modern love story with an old-fashioned heart." ––Vogue “Sure to satisfy fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid and Sally Rooney.” ––E! Online "Funny and modern, The Arc is like a rom-com’s cooler big sister." ––Real Simple Can you curate your soulmate? Thirty-five-year-old Ursula Byrne, VP of Strategic Audacity at a branding agency in Manhattan, is successful, witty, whip-smart, and single. She’s tried all the dating apps, and let’s just say: she’s underwhelmed by her options. You’d think that by now someone would have come up with something more bespoke; a way for users to be more tailored about who and what they want in a life partner––how hard could that be? Enter The Arc: a highly secretive, super-sophisticated matchmaking service that uses a complex series of emotional, psychological and physiological assessments to architect partnerships that will go the distance. The price tag is high, the promise ambitious––a level of lifelong compatibility that would otherwise be unattainable. In other words, The Arc will find your ideal mate. Ursula is paired with forty-two-year-old lawyer Rafael Banks. From moment one, this feels like the electric, lasting love they’ve each been seeking their whole adult lives. But as their relationship unfolds in unanticipated ways, the two begin to realize that true love is never a sure thing. And the arc of a relationship is never predictable...even when it's fully optimized.
Book Synopsis A Goddess Named Gold by : Bhabani Bhattacharya
Download or read book A Goddess Named Gold written by Bhabani Bhattacharya and published by Orient Paperbacks. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A modern fable of rural India narrated against the backdrop of freedom struggle. It is a masterly satire on those who live by the lure of gold. The characters are introduced one by one in a leisurely manner, and we meet among them a pretty girl, a wandering minstrel and a luxuriously mustachioed seth. Skilfully blending fable and reality it delves deep into the human mind. The plot centres around a touchstone given to Meera by her sagacious grandfather. It is believed that the amulet would enable Meera to turn copper into gold, provided she acts kindly as a natural and spontaneous expression of herself. 'Wearing it on your person, if you do an act of kindness, real kindness, then all copper on your body will turn to gold... parted from your arm, the touchstone will be dead, a worthless pebble.' It is hugely entertaining tale, yet it disturbs. It disturbs as a warning and as a prophecy.

Book Synopsis Justice Prevailed at Last… by : Prashna Narayana Rai
Download or read book Justice Prevailed at Last… written by Prashna Narayana Rai and published by Exceller Books. This book was released on 2024-09-18 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel is the English translation of the Kannada novel "Katheyadhale Kavayithree," originally published in March 2022 by author Prashna Narayana Rai. From the lofty perch of Themis, blindfolded and wielding the scales of justice, the triumph of equity is an axiom. Yet, as Sudhathri, raised on such idealistic tales, discovered during her baptism by fire in the courtroom, the scales often tip precariously. Justice isn't guaranteed to outweigh transgression; rather, brute force frequently prevails. This disillusionment sparked a fire within her: a determination to bolster the weight of justice. Enter Mugil, a childhood friend wasting away in the clutches of addiction under the thrall of Quarter Kariyappa, the gang leader. Ayesha, another childhood friend, exhausts herself in vain attempts to pull him back from the precipice. Desperate, she turns to Sudhathri, a college junior whose fictional narratives have captivated audiences. Sudhathri, wielding the power of pen and prose, crafts a poignant love story mirroring Mugil's life. The lines between fiction and reality blur, and Sudhathri finds herself enmeshed in the narrative she weaves. Set against the backdrop of a modern world, "Justice Prevailed at Last" interweaves the celestial love story of Earth and Sky with the intricate tapestry of Sudhathri, Mugil, and a cast of compelling characters. It delves deeper, questioning the impact of humanity's relentless reshaping of the world. Does nature, the primeval force of creation, countenance this disruption? Does humankind, in its hubristic efforts to mold the five elements to its will, recognize the potential consequences? This novel is a poignant exploration of justice, love, and the delicate balance between human intervention and the natural world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of international bestseller, Shantaram, takes us on a gripping personal journey of wonder and insight into science, belief, faith and devotion. Drawing on common-sense logic, sacred traditions, inspirations from the natural world and the iconoclastic instruction of his spiritual teacher, Roberts describes the step by step path he followed in search of spiritual connection, one that anyone, of any belief or none, can apply in their own lives. This gripping personal account of the Leap of Faith is a compellingly fresh, new addition to such enduring, spiritually inspiring works as Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, The Road Less Travelled and The Celestine Prophecy. From the Author: "The Spiritual Path is for anyone searching for meaning and connection, for more answers than questions, and for practical help in resetting the spiritual compass." Gregory David Roberts
