Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lyrical exploration of desire and loss set in present day Lahore. Kuchan Miran Shah had seen better days. Filled with built centuries ago by courtiers for courtesans, it is now a place frequented by drug addicts and dropouts. Here, set amidst Charlie Video palace, Green star ladies clinic and Dilwar's two rupees cart, with the Badshahi Masjid looming in the background, is the crumbling Begum Haveli. It is home to Fatimah, a mute girl injured in a acid attack as a baby, and her three surrogate mothers, all retired courteasans. Between her duties at the Haveli, Fatimah searches for love, first with Bobby, brash owner of the video parlour, and then Shabbir, the young apprentice priest at the mosque. But hope is at premium in Kucha Shah, refuge of the defeated and the destitute. The book is a moving story of love in its various forms and the despair it sometimes brings to those who find it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only English-language anthology by Pakistani women published in the United States, And the World Changed goes beyond the sensational headlines to reveal the stories of Pakistani women. Immigrants and refugees, travelers and explorers, seasoned authors and fresh voices, the twenty-five writers in this volume are as dynamic and diverse as their stories. Sixty years have passed since the Partition of India, and it’s clear that Pakistani writers have established their own literary tradition to record the stories of their communities. Famed novelist Bapsi Sidhwa portrays a Pakistani community in Houston, Texas, still struggling to heal from the horrors of Partition. In Uzma Aslam Khan’s tale, a man working in a Karachi auto body shop falls in love with the magical woman painted on a bus cabin. Bushra Rehman introduces us to a Pakistani girl living in Corona, Queens, who becomes painfully aware of the tensions between established Italian immigrants and their new Pakistani neighbors. And during the anti-Muslim sentiment following 9/11, a young woman in newcomer Humera Afridi’s story searches Manhattan’s rubble-filled streets for a mosque. Filled with nostalgic memories of Pakistan, critical commentary about the world’s current political climate, and inspirational hope for the future, the stories in And the World Changed weave an intricate, enlightening view of Pakistan, its relation to the West, and the women who travel between the two regions. Featuring: Talat Abbasi, Humera Afridi, Aamina Ahmad, Rukhsana Ahmad, Feryal Ali Gauhar, Sara Suleri Goodyear, Shahrukh Husain, Sabyn Javeri Jillani, Sonia Kamal, Fawzia Afzal Khan, Sorayya Khan, Uzma Aslam Khan, Maniza Naqvi, Tahira Naqvi, Nayyara Rahman, Hima Raza, Bushra Rehman, Fahmida Riaz, Roshni Rustomji, Sehba Sarwar, Bina Shah, Qaisra Shahraz, Kamila Shamsie, Muneeza Shamsie, and Bapsi Sidwa.

Book excerpt: As a daughter of a bestselling novelist, Annie Shaw is determined to establish herself as a romance author apart from her father's name. When a career-threatening review sends her on vacation at Deerbourne Inn, she wonders if she should quit writing. Book critic Zane Barrett hates all things romance—especially novels. Every August, he travels to Willow Springs, Vermont, to cope with a loss he's never relinquished. When the two meet in the idyllic town, even Zane admits they've fallen victim to love at first sight. But what will happen when Annie discovers her hated critic and the perfect man are one and the same?

Book excerpt: I have sat at the feet of teachers, who have sat at the feet of masters, so I have touched enlightenment thrice removed, which has the feeling of a handsome baseball glove in a shop window that I have not the money to buy. I know this feeling well, yet still live in the hope of that clap of thunder. Embers is a meditation on life. The poems give form to thoughts, experiences, memories, hopes, and dreams, turning private reflections into something shared. Giskin weaves fragments of memory from childhood with stories of his ancestors in Lithuania, his travels, stunning moments in nature, and the ungraciousness of ageing. And yet, Embers leaves us curious about the potent images of our own lives, and perhaps a little more able to settle into quiet moments of insight.

Book excerpt: The Night When Animals Talk is a story about the seasons of life; of childhood affections and great passions. Matteo and Claudia meet again in Calabria during a festival in honor of the Virgin Mary and their old love story comes back to life in the setting where it began. Many years before, from the same town, Matteo’s grandfather, Alessandro, had set off to fight in the Second World War. Once at the front in Africa, Alessandro also reminisced about a love that would never be. Years later, in the narrow streets of Conflenti, the lives of Alessandro, Matteo and Claudia cross once again, shadowing each other during the days of the feast. Loves not lived and ancient farming traditions, choices that change and the dreams of different generations that intertwine until reaching a heartwarming and poignant finale.
