Twenty-five years in the making, this anthology of centuries-old folk tales from the villages of South Asia recreate the oral traditions of old. Treat yourself to 27 old-fashioned short stories of kings, princesses, fools, wisemen, talking animals, treacherous villains, and unlikely heroes. Plucked and distilled from the anthropological literature, these tales hearken to a simpler time and faraway places, when old and young alike were entertained by fireside storytellers who wandered from village to village to ply their yarn-spinning trade.

For generations, Arthur Waley’s lyrical translations served as the primary gateway to Chinese poetry for the English-speaking world. Organized by dynasty, this edition transforms Waley's scattered masterpieces into a coherent historical journey through Chinese literature, from the ancient Zhou foundational texts to the twilight of the Tang. This structure reveals the evolving concerns of Chinese civilization, from ritual and statecraft to intimate personal reflection and profound philosophical inquiry, all through Waley’s singular poetic voice.

মানুষের জীবন অনেকটাই বহমান নদীর মতো, নদী যেমন মানুষ কে আশ্রয় দেয় তেমনই নদী ভাসিয়েও নিয়ে যায়। প্রৌঢ় ইশকুল মাস্টার দারুকেশ্বর ভট্টাচার্য একটি নদীকে নিজের মেয়ের নামে করতে চান, সেই আর্জি নিয়েই দারুকেশ্বর ভট্টাচার্য আসে ডিস্ট্রিক্ট ম্যাজিস্ট্রেট প্রবালের কাছে। প্রবাল তাকে আশ্বাস দিতে পারেনা কিন্তু কোথাও যেন এই বৃদ্ধের কাতর আবেদনের সাথে সে নিজেকে একাত্ম বোধ করে, এই বৃদ্ধের মধ্যে প্রবাল তার নিজের বাবাকে খুঁজে পায়,কিন্তু কেন এই বৃদ্ধ একটি নদীর নাম নিজের মেয়ের নামে করবার জন্য কাতর হয়ে ওঠে, প্রবাল কেন নিজেকে খুঁজে পায় এই ঘটনার মধ্যে জানতে এক্ষুনি শুনুন "একটি নদীর নাম"

井上円了。江戸から大正までを生きた、仏教哲学者、教育家として名を残す。 迷信を打破する立場から妖怪を研究した。 妖怪を、オカルティズムを廃した、科学的見地で把握するために、研究したそうだが、じつは単に好きだったんでしょうと感じられる本書。すばらしい熱意。 むちゃくちゃにオモシロイのだが、明治の論文語体で読みづらいので、原文に忠実に、ナレーターの表現を極力抑えて仕上げたこのオーディオブックでお楽しみください。 ただし、妖怪大好きなお子さんと一緒に聞くのは、まだ妖怪を否定しているだけに思えるかもしれないので、ご注意ください。

Khair Chhodo is a niche collection of poems written by Vishwa Deepak. In this book, the poet has tried to include poems on various emotions like love, valor, revolution, family relations, etc. The metaphors and similes used in his poems are refreshingly new, and the abstract references used by him in some places enchant you. But the real treat for the listener will be the introduction of a relatively new genre called Triveni.

A dream I wish to have in the night most often isn’t about dating a Hollywood star or making a great hit song. It’s not about my parents saying to me with tears, “We were wrong. We’re sorry”, either. It’s about numbers. I once saw a woman on TV who won four million dollars by the lottery with the numbers she had seen in her dream. Shortly after that, I myself saw numbers in my dream and began to buy a lottery ticket with those numbers.

SCHIAVA. ARTISTA DELLA FUGA. ASSASSINA. RIBELLE. SPIA. AMANTE. MADRE. E... QUANTE SONO LE VITE DI UNA DONNA? TUTTE QUELLE NECESSARIE PER SOPRAVVIVERE. Tre parole per riassumere la propria esistenza. È l’invito che un'impiegata della casa di riposo rivolge ai residenti per raccontare la loro vita. A quasi cento anni, Mook Miran pensava che avrebbe portato i suoi segreti nella tomba, invece quell'estranea le sta offrendo l'occasione per fare finalmente pace col proprio passato. Tre parole, però, non le bastano, e ne sceglie sette: schiava, artista della fuga, assassina, terrorista, spia, amante.

"Kvindemasker" af den japanske forfatter Fumiko Enchi (1905-1986) er et modernistisk japansk værk, der udforsker klasse, seksualitet og undertrykkelse af kvinder i et traditionelt patriarkalsk samfund. Det er et ildevarslende og dragende trekantsdrama og en mystisk besættelsesfortælling om hævn og bedrag.

Tomorrow Someone Will Arrest You cements Meena Kandasamy as one of the most exciting, radical thinkers at work today. These poems chronicle wanting, art-making, and the practicing of resistance and solidarity in the face of a hostile state. Here, the personal is political, and Kandasamy moves between sex, desire, family and wider societal issues of caste, the refugee crisis, and freedom of expression with grace and defiance. This is a bold, unforgettable collection by a poet who compels us to sit up and listen.
