I Have Not Seen Mandu

This was originally published in Hindi, written by Swadesh Deepak, documenting his seven yearlong battles with mental illness. A dangerous seductress—his Mayavini—is taking revenge for his insulting rebuff at her wish to visit with him the famous lovers’ palace in Mandu.

This book is all about art, words, images, about making the invisible visible and the visible invisible.

The Nutmeg’s curse

The Nutmeg’s curse by Amitav Ghosh is written against the backdrop of the pandemic and the Black Lives Matter protests, and interweaving discussions on everything from climate change, the migrant crisis, and the animist spirituality of indigenous communities around the world.

The Nutmeg's Curse offers a sharp critique of Western society, and reveals the profoundly remarkable ways in which human history is shaped by non-human forces.

Rumours of spring

Farah Bashir through her lens gives us an unflinching portrait of Kashmir minus the romanticisation. A rumour of spring is the unforgettable account of Farah Bashir's adolescence spent in Srinagar in the 1990s.

As Indian troops and militants battle across the cityscape and violence becomes the new normal, a young schoolgirl finds that ordinary tasks - studying for exams, walking to the bus stop, combing her hair, falling asleep - are riddled with anxiety and fear.

The deeply affecting coming of age memoir portrays how territorial conflicts affect everyday lives in Kashmir.

What Millennial Want

Are millennial easily mellowed by instagram filters and boomerangs or are their other realities tangled with personal anxieties?

Vivan Marwah will answer your questions with a sample size of millennials across 13 Indian states and more than 30,000 kilometers.

In What Millennials Want, Vivan Marwaha documents the aspirations and anxieties of these young people.

Home In the World

This is the memoir of one of the tallest intellectuals of India who shaped not just the economic trajectory of this country but also defined new parameters to measure economic growth, income and development, Amartya Sen(Nobel Prize Winner).

This is a book of ideas - especially Marx, Keynes and Arrow - as much as of people and places.

In one of the chapters, Sen evokes 'the rivers of Bengal' along which he traveled with his parents between Dhaka and their ancestral villages. The historic culture of Bengal is wonderfully explored, as is the political inflaming of Hindu-Muslim hostility and the resistance to it.
