| N o v e l s |  | Anything for Friends but Sometimes…It Simply Depends… | ||||
Never propose to a girl via SMS or email or letter. Propose to her face to face. In writing, you leave behind evidence against yourself. Verbally, you can show your emotions and most importantly, you can run from your own statement without leaving any evidence. A proposal should be like a lady’s skirt; long enough to cover the essentials, short enough to keep it interesting. Six friends from an engineering college in Patiala have a similar story to tell. They rocked their four years of college life with their own rules in everything. They were free birds and no college norms or rules could chain them until they became the victims of circumstances and bitterness that rolled in their lives.

It is accidentally passed down, hidden under insecurities and jealousies, locked in its meaninglessness and leaving a trail of ruin. When her great-grandson accidentally discovers the secret, he is perplexed by the malice that flowed in his family's blood. Was it just the secret or his family would have destroyed itself even in its absence? Why was their love never greater than their unsaid expectations from each other?

| S h o r t S t o r i e s |  | Breeze in the Old Building and Other Stories | ||||
This collection of twenty five stories is her maiden attempt at venturing into Magic Realism but she has given her own interpretation to the term and created Breeze in the Old Building, The Tree, The Little Woman at the Kiln and The Old Man on the Hill. The stories depict especially a world of her own where contrary spaces and characters and times can freely mix, in an often Indian landscape upheld by beautiful and ugly images and powerfully vast and lush descriptiveness, along with touches of playfulness, seriousness, didacticism and whimsy. The Lamb is metaphorically tragic in orientation. The Nose is semi-humorous in its study of obsession and The Giant Mole is Kafkaesque as is, to a lesser extent, Too Long a Sacrifice and even The Court of Law. She confesses to have an abiding interest in Kafka’s work and her stories have impression of Kafka in them.

| S h o r t S t o r i e s |  | Fly on the Wall and Other Stories | ||||
In her debut book Fly on the Wall and Other Stories, author and civil servant, Shubha Sarma examines different facets of life’s narrative with detachment, precision and compassion. The subjects range from the up-market, urban settings to the depths of rural Odisha and areas of civil strife and deep social unrest. The narrative strings together fretful house-wives, over-imaginative teenagers and men and women in the sunset of their lives. There is Dipankar, yearning for Assam and returning to discover that he is a stranger in his own land and the beautiful Uma, mysteriously killed and awaiting justice; there is Arun craving for parental affection and Shikha, defying social mores. They are people that one encounters every day on the bus, the metro and at times, the mirror. Each story is uniquely crafted with an ingenious sense of structural balance. As a whole, this assortment of tales with a twist brings to life the realities and contradiction of India and makes it an enchanting collection of highly readable short stories. "A compelling read, overflowing with acutely-observed, cleverly-plotted, artlessly-told stories that hold your attention from the first to the last, Fly on the Wall marks a remarkable debut by a gifted storyteller of undoubted promise. I look forward to more from her pen." --Dr. Shashi Tharoor "This intriguing debut collection of short stories displays craft, discipline and narrative strength." --Namita Gokhale

Tangled relationships, life’s contradictions, social injustices, psychic complexities, and subliminal drives are the subjects of the stories. The protagonists grapple with the oppressive forces to evolve a paradigm for living, ending up defeated or scarred, at times. The young man’s rage against his adulterous father, the Adivasi child, Bhera’s revenge on the Zamindar for his mother’s rape and death, Banno’s suicide to save her lover from AIDS, and the struggles of the other protagonists generate empathy and pathos and show that poetic justice is a myth or at best a mere chance.

Yet another venture from the story teller of north Malabar. Most of these tales are set in Kalloor, which had been the setting for the author’s debut novel Monsoons in Malabar. While some among these fourteen stories discuss surrealistic experiences of the central characters, a few harp on struggles for existence in a heartless world. Some deal with the fallout of sensual relations outside the gambit of matrimony. A few rely on folklore and mythology to punctuate the thematic drift of the narratives.

| B u s i n e s s |  | Cinera Utthana 1978-2008 : Kibhabe Paribartanera Katha Bhebechila = China Emerging 1978-2008 : How Thinking About Business Changed | ||||
Bengali translation of the English language edition of China Emerging 1978-2008 : How Thinking About Business Changed. The ascent of China’s economy over the past thirty years may be one of the more remarkable happenings in human history. Few understand it. Those outside China consider the massive changes a mystery. Those inside China have been challenged with taking more than 1.3 billion people from an agrarian existence into the modern world, and in the face of complex economics involving extreme conflicts of interest. Nobody ever did it before; nobody will ever do it again. Given the convulsive upheavals required, the difficulty of the task has been, and remains, hard to imagine. This book describes those upheavals and that process over the years from 1978 to 2008. It represents a remarkable achievement in condensing a welter of events and changes down to the bare essentials. In summing up a period of history, it also serves as a query about what is to come next. Where are the convulsive changes leading, not only for China, but for the world. Every stretch of history has its own internal logic. The reader of this book may be confronted with a more “real” China than he has known before. Under the surface ripples, diverging streams, uneven tumult, he may discern the middle of the channel, that greater internal logic at work. It represents the flow of a people, quite an ancient nation of people, coursing with all vigor, all courage, all hope, toward an uncertain future.

"This is an anthology of poems on woman in English. This is the story of an everyday woman who we see around us every now and then. This is a short collection of thoughts of women who build lives around the husband and his wishes. This is done willingly and happily. In fact this gives her immense satisfaction. She is so busy building a family and dreaming of a home that she’ll one day spend her old age in, that she misses the warning signals and ignores her own intuitive feeling. Her family, her home, that’s her existence and she revels in it.
And then, suddenly, unexpectedly, she’s told she’s no longer needed. The reasons given vary but are unimportant. The effect is the same, he walks away and she keels over. Caught unawares at crossroads she gasps and sputters This is when she realises that she has to go on. There are obligations she must fulfil and tasks she must complete. Her family and friends rally around her and then, like a true warrior, she battles the demons inside and around her. She looks up to find new horizons and at daybreak she promises herself a new rainbow. And this rainbow is hers alone.

| H i s t o r y |  | Beyond the Barriers, New Horizons : Education of Women in Bengal (1800-1900) | ||||
In the beginning of the nineteenth century, female education in Bengal was largely limited to customary
practices drawn from ancient texts. In the same century, the East India Company and later the British Crown
and the Christian missionaries operating in India addressed the unprecedented issues of education including
female education. These occurrences impinged upon the indigenous avant-garde leaders, along with women themselves,
to further progress in female education. In a reader-friendly manner,
the chapters show how the trajectory of these events eventually led to a gradual development of higher education.
