Soft cover. Zustand: New. A former militant is unable to reconcile his tranquil domesticity with his brutal past. A mother walks an emotional tightrope, for her two sons - a police officer and an underground rebel - fight on opposite sides of the Assam insurgency. A deaf and mute child who sells locally brewed alcohol ventures into dangerous territory through his interaction with members of the local militant outfit. How to Tell the Story of an Insurgency is an unflinching account of a war India has been fighting in the margins. Written originally in Assamese, Bodo and English, the fifteen stories in this book attempt to humanize the longstanding, bloody conflict that the rest of India knows of only through facts and figures or reports in newspapers and on television channels.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. ARUNI KASHYAP'S HONEST, SEARING STORIES PROBE IDENTITY, SEXUALITY, VIOLENCE AND BELONGING. At a conference in Delhi, Assamese writer Sanjib reimagines the enduring fable of Tejimola, the girl who sprouted leaves. But the English-language literati don't understand why he doesn't write about the insurgency. With the very first story in this unusual and unapologetic collection, Aruni Kashyap sets the tone for an intimate exploration of a terrain that is both familiar and alien. In the spirit of modern post-colonial storytellers like Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Daniyal Mueenuddin, his stories press the silences of the village and the nascent city to reveal their secrets. The result is a frank appraisal of our hypocrisies and desires, hopes and defeatsthe stuff of the stuff we carry within us. Through tales that root up love, violence, motherhood and sex, Kashyap appears to ask: what are the stories about a place that are told, which ones are worth telling, what do we really want to say.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 'Vivid, humane, wise, and very funny . brings together the political novel and the romcom.' - Neel Mukherjee 'A dazzling novel that enchants, seduces, and devastates the reader.' - Mona Susan Power 'Irreverent, witty, and moving.' - Sonora Jha Rohit, a young professor teaching in Delhi, is in love with his friend Dhruv - a tall, fierce activist who insists they're better off as "soulmates" than as lovers. Nursing a broken heart, Rohit pursues other men in the city, until he chances upon the handsome Sayan, whom he likes but can't commit to since he still desires Dhruv. They enter into a relationship to see where that takes them. Rohit's attempts at exploring the possibilities of this fledgling romance get derailed as political tensions sweep across campus. Sayan, Dhruv, and the group of queer friends he leans on, find themselves caught in the vortex-the late-night parties and banter they once knew giving way to a desperate, terrifying fight for survival. Propulsive, tense, yet charged with humor and tenderness, How to Date a Fanatic reminds us that the politics of self and of our times are entwined. What we look for in love, Aruni Kashyap suggests, may not be very far from what we seek in a democracy: Can we be safeguarded without giving up our freedom? More pertinently: Can love save us, everyone else, and a nation? The political charge of Megha Majumdar's A Burning, the comic heartbreak of Andrew Sean Greer's Less. From the author of The House with a Thousand Stories and His Father's Disease.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. In a recently liberated economy characterized by speed, the commodification of women's bodies and consumerist culture, Bhashwati is an increasingly disillusioned misfit who has, ironically, just started working in an advertising firm. But her life changes one day when she finds out about the mysterious Mohua Roy, a former copywriter with the company, whose desk Bhashwati now uses. The company employees remain tight-lipped about Mohua, who had left abruptly for reasons unknown. On finding a poem written by Mohua, Bhashwati decides to search for her. This takes Bhashwati to Calcutta's lanes, where she meets people who sacrificed immensely for the same values that she finds eroded in a developing India. Who is Mohua Roy? Why is there a net of silence around her very existence? Will Bhashwati find Mohua? Will she leave her job, just like Mohua? Hriday Ek Bigyapan, first published in Assamese in 1997, was an instant bestseller, going into tens of reprints in the next two decades. By taking a close look at the newly globalized India of the 1990s from a feminist lens, it poses questions about modern urban life that few Indian novels have been able to-questions that are still relevant today. Aruni Kashyap's seamless translation from the Assamese makes this book a must-read.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A collection of poignant, finely crafted stories set against the backdrop of violence that has long racked north-eastern India.' -Amitav Ghosh, via Twitter'A new voice in the burgeoning oeuvre of anglophone fiction from northeast India.' -World Literature TodayAt a New Delhi conference, an Assamese writer is interrogated on why he writes about magical folktales instead of the insurgencies. A mother splashes around in the village lake to mask the lovemaking sounds of her son with another man. A newly-arrived graduate student in Minnesota navigates living arrangements with his white roommate, Mike, and Mike's Indian girlfriend. In agile and frank prose, The Way You Want to Be Loved tells the stories of queer, displaced lives from India's Northeast, an underrepresented region in English fiction. A hybrid cast of characters represents the common people in these thirteen stories, whether western-trained academic or village sorcerer, army soldier or local politician, homeward-bound son or dutiful daughter-in-law. They wrestle with diasporic melancholia, the social pressures of familial duty, and the search for their own personhood, even as they live in a world where personhood is continually compromised and reshaped under oppressive forces larger than themselves. Aruni Kashyap offers up a powerful critique of the malfunctioning democracies of India and the US, deftly balancing devastation and tragedy with a darkly humorous tone that has readers questioning their laughter. At its core, The Way You Want to Be Loved explores what it means to love, desire, and long for life under the duress of everyday and state-sanctioned violence and discrimination.…
