Download or read book Kipling Sahib written by Charles Allen and published by Abacus. This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rudyard Kipling was born in Bombay in 1865 and spent his early years there, before being sent, aged six, to England, a desperately unhappy experience. Charles Allen's great-grandfather brought the sixteen-year-old Kipling out to Lahore to work on The Civil and Military Gazette with the words 'Kipling will do', and thus set young Rudyard on his literary course. And so it was that at the start of the cold weather of 1882 he stepped ashore at Bombay on 18 October 1882 - 'a prince entering his kingdom'. He stayed for seven years during which he wrote the work that established him as a popular and critical, sometimes controversial, success. Charles Allen has written a brilliant account of those years - of an Indian childhood and coming of age, of abandonment in England, of family and Empire. He traces the Indian experiences of Kipling's parents, Lockwood and Alice and reveals what kind of culture the young writer was born into and then returned to when still a teenager. It is a work of fantastic sympathy for a man - though not blind to Kipling's failings - and the country he loved.

Book excerpt: Even decades after the grassy knoll the dog-faced man from Dallas is hounded by the betrayal that forever altered his life. From birth he has sheltered, nurtured and exquisitely trained his son for one monumental task. Now, with his dying breath he unleashes his meticulously honed next generation weapon. 'Shiva's Messenger' is cunning, relentless and in chameleon form, he strikes faster than the cobra of his symbol. From the high Canadian wilderness, through the heartland and ancients capitols of Europe he embraces death and has been reaping a swath targeted at the highest levels of politics. Can anyone stop him or do any want to try?

Book excerpt: The First Promise is a translation of Ashapurna Debi s novel, Pratham Pratisruti, originally published in Bengali in 1964. Celebrated as one of the most popular and path-breaking novels of its time, it has received continual critical acclaim: the Rabindra Puraskar (the Tagore Prize) in 1966 and the Bharitiya Jnanpith, India s highest literary award, in 1977. Spanning the late eighteenth and early twentieth centuries, Ashapurna tells the story of the struggles and efforts of women in nineteenth-century, colonial Bengal in a deceptively easy and conversational style. The charming eight-year old heroine, Satyabati is a child bride who leaves her husband s village for Calcutta, the capital of British India where she is caught in the social dynamics of women s education, social reform agendas, modern medicine and urban entertainment. As she makes her way through this complex maze, making sense of the rapidly changing world around her, Satyabati nurtures hopes and aspirations for her daughter. But the promises held out by modernity turn out to be empty, instigating Satyabati to break away from her inherited world and initiate a quest that takes her to the very heart of tradition.

Download or read book Perspectives on Indian Dalit Literature written by Dipak Giri and published by Booksclinic Publishing. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book “Perspectives on Indian Dalit Literature: Critical Responses” is a volume of twenty six scholarly articles focusing on the theme of Dalit’s freedom and emancipation from traditional caste-stigmatised society which sacrifices the interest of Dalits on the altar of tradition. The book endeavours to articulate voices among this marginalized class of people to come in action from their passivity and stillness. The book also tries to cover almost all eminent Dalit writers of past and present century like Omprakash Valmiki, Baby Kamble, Bama Faustina Soosairaj, Meena Kandasamy, Namdeo Dhasal, Sharankumar Limbale, Bhimrao Shirwale, Hira Bansode etc. along with some non-Dalit wrters like Munshi Premchand, Mulk Raj Anand, Arvind Adiga etc. who have sought plea for this marginalized class of people with same ardour and passion as other Dalit writers through their write ups. Hopefully this anthology would serve for better humanity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has the power to change how people think about India. Many Indians wonder: 'We have so many good things young workers, smart scientists, skilled managers, natural resources and a 5,000-year-old culture. So why aren't we as successful as countries like Japan, Singapore or those in Europe?' 'Have we reached our full potential? If not, why not? Where did we make mistakes?' This book tries to answer these big questions. It looks at the problems India faces - both big and small. If we all work and stand together, the nation can leap frog into a super power very quickly. It offers simple, practical ideas to help India move forward. It doesn't use complicated language or ideas. Instead, it presents common-sense solutions that anyone can understand. Reading it might give you a gentle push or 'nudge' to think differently about India's challenges and potential. It could inspire you to take action, no matter how small, to help make India better. It's not just about complaining about problems, but about finding ways to solve them and make India stronger.

Download or read book India Unbound written by Gurcharan Das and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2002-04-09 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India today is a vibrant free-market democracy, a nation well on its way to overcoming decades of widespread poverty. The nation’s rise is one of the great international stories of the late twentieth century, and in India Unbound the acclaimed columnist Gurcharan Das offers a sweeping economic history of India from independence to the new millennium. Das shows how India’s policies after 1947 condemned the nation to a hobbled economy until 1991, when the government instituted sweeping reforms that paved the way for extraordinary growth. Das traces these developments and tells the stories of the major players from Nehru through today. As the former CEO of Proctor & Gamble India, Das offers a unique insider’s perspective and he deftly interweaves memoir with history, creating a book that is at once vigorously analytical and vividly written. Impassioned, erudite, and eminently readable, India Unbound is a must for anyone interested in the global economy and its future.
