Soft cover. Zustand: New. Rogues among the Ruins portray the conflict of civil servants caught between ideals and thirst for success. The novel adopts the style of great masters like Gogol and Cervantes who, in their search for truth, evoke laughter through tears. The first part of the novel is a gripping fictionalized account of the workings of the Archaeological Survey of India and the painful predicaments of a dedicated but naïve scholar faced with temptations. The scholar's son, a morally indifferent bureaucrat, chronicles a later era in the second part. Through tawdry dramas, administrative acrobatics of sycophants and hypocrites, he encounters the sordid reality of powerful men and women who think they rule the country. With sardonic humour, sympathy and reluctant respect the narrator takes the reader on a journey through Glory Road where principles are discarded by the ambitious, where the proud encounter humiliations, where idealists are scorned, and sometimes those with stubborn strength overcome ordeals.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Phantom Lovers comprises two lyrical novellas With Fate Conspire and Wait! With Fate Conspire narrates how, despite the antagonism between the imperial British and the subjugated Indians, a young British magistrate is entranced by a zamindar s daughter in Bengal. On a stormy night they elope to their planned paradise until the Mutiny of 1857 intrudes on their lives. A century later in London their predicament is mysteriously reflected in the turbulent fate of another Englishman and an Indian girl. Wait! is about two lovers in Rome an Afghan academic and an Indian woman who plan an idyllic life together. Then the violent coup of April 1978 in Afghanistan forever changes their destinies and of that nation. Caught in these tempests the separated lovers in both stories defy danger and despair as they travel across strange frontiers of time and space to find their lost beloveds. With haunting beauty the award-winning author describes the destinies of the lovers against the dramatic background of the British Raj in Bengal as well as the conflicts of our times across Kabul, Rome and London.
Zustand: Fine. Gebrochener Buchrucken. Portraits of Courage in Indian and Russian Literature is about four writers from India and Russia. Alexander Pushkin, Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, Rabindranath Tagore and Alexander Solzhenitsyn are separated by different ages, different societies, different races and creeds. They are united by a universality of purpose - of protest against injustice and oppression.All four could have led secure and comfortable lives but they chose danger, exile and even death to express their sympathy for the oppressed. All four upheld the grandeur of freedom. All four were men of courage.Leela Moulik and Bela Mazumdar were sisters who composed the monographs on Bankim Chandra and Rabindranath Tagore in chaste Bengali. Their daughter/niece Aloka Moulik Chatterjee, historian and translator, translated them into English. Her sister Achala M. Moulik wrote about Pushkin and Solzhenitsyn.While portraying the lives and works of the four authors the four gifted women have brought to life the tumult of other times.
