Download or read book Insomnia written by Marina Benjamin and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An insomniac’s ideal sleep aid—and that’s a compliment. With her collage of ruminations about sleeplessness, [Benjamin] promises no real cure . . . Her slim book is what the doctor ordered.”—The Atlantic Insomnia is on the rise. Villainous and unforgiving, it’s the enemy o f energy and focus, the thief of our repose. But can insomnia be an ally, too, a validator of the present moment, of edginess and creativity? Marina Benjamin takes on her personal experience of the condition—her struggles with it, her insomniac highs, and her dawning awareness that states of sleeplessness grant us valuable insights into the workings of our unconscious minds. Although insomnia is rarely entirely welcome, Benjamin treats it less as an affliction than as an encounter that she engages with and plumbs. She adds new dimensions to both our understanding of sleep (and going without it) and of night, and how we perceive darkness. Along the way, Insomnia trips through illuminating material from literature, art, philosophy, psychology, pop culture, and more. Benjamin pays particular attention to the relationship between women and sleep—Penelope up all night, unraveling her day’s weaving for Odysseus; the Pre–Raphaelite artists’ depictions of deeply sleeping women; and the worries that keep contemporary females awake. Insomnia is an intense, lyrical, witty, and humane exploration of a state we too often consider only superficially. “This is the song of insomnia, and I shall sing it,” Marina Benjamin declares.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thieves were not necessarily looked down upon in India as villains or parasites. In this country, besides mythological thieves, there were legendary thieves who are alive in collective and individual memory. In the Barak Valley region of Assam there was the concept of baadi rakhal, or the protector of the household, which happened to be a snake. The venomous snake was religiously worshipped and believed to be the protector of the household from all danger! Similarly, almost all villages had their own and well-known thief, who would punish the disloyal in the locality by breaking into his house and protect the loyal households from any other burglar from outside or inside the village. He was duly revered as a hero and substantially compensated. The great thieves of that time inflicted no harm to the weak and poor and enjoyed the power and prestige as admissible to a person who would practice a respectable profession. Different localities in that region had many such hero thieves, one at a time in a particular territory. Here is a story of such a well-known thief.
