Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. The Cuckoo s Nest is the story of Madam Agatha, a former devout nun who, after renouncing the order, decides to take up the cudgels for the cause of tolerance and pluralism. She decides to set up a unique institution called Nest for empowering the hapless girls from all over the country, discarded by society. The paramount condition set by her is that none of the resident girls are allowed to talk of their religion or caste inside the campus. The novelist attempts to portray the kind of challenges she has to face from vested interests all around while working towards secularism, and how she manages to swim against the tide. The theme is quite contemporary and topical, and some of the issues treated in this novel are staring Indian society and polity in the face today. One increasingly comes across certain divisive forces trying to promote othering in order to disturb the cultural and communal harmony in the country. It is significant here that the eternal optimist Agatha believes strongly that even in this darkest hour, all is not lost. And she continues her fight for what she thinks is right. This novel works like a soothing balm for the human spirit, tired and beaten down by false ideologies.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Kadambari, the flower girl is set in the temple town of devagiri: there are flower shops, as flowers are used copiously for rituals in the temple by devotees and for other purposes. Shankararaman is the most renowned flower-seller employing five differently abled girls (named after flowers) for processing flowers for varied uses. He and his wife gomathy are not blessed with progeny. They attend a temple festival and, while returning, a four-year-old abandoned girl child in rags clings to Shankara. A devout man, he considers the child as a gift of the goddess and takes the girl home. Initially gomathy detests the child but later in a poignant moment her attitude softens and she takes her as her own daughter. The couple showers the best of care and love for the adopted daughter; they do face social stigma but ignore it. Kadambari is intelligent and independent and grows into a beautiful girl and her parents feel blessed and want her to become a doctor. Growing up and blossoming like a flower brings troubles, as she is not able to cope up with the ogling eyes of males, be it male school teachers or dance and music instructors. Prowling gazes make her Panicky. She loses interest in academics and is unable to express her inner conflicts to anyone. Feeling devastated and insecure after a scary incident, she flees from home that nurtured her. Her existential dilemma is profound in losing the affinity to the home.
