Download or read book Arresting God in Kathmandu written by Samrat Upadhyay and published by HMH. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From “a major new talent” come short stories set in modern Nepal, about arranged marriages, forbidden desires, and the universal yearning for human connection (Amitav Ghosh). Set in a city where gods are omnipresent, privacy is elusive, and family defines identity, these are stories of men and women caught between their own needs and the demands of their society and culture. Psychologically rich and astonishingly acute, with “a masterful narrative style” (Ian MacMillan), Arresting God in Kathmandu introduces a potent new voice in contemporary fiction. “Upadhyay brings to readers the flavor of Nepal and its culture in this impressive collection of nine short stories. Like Ha Jin’s Bridegroom, Upadhyay’s stories portray the lives of simple yet psychologically complex characters and reveal much about the universal human condition in us all. . . . Upadhyay’s stories leave the reader with much food for thought and will make a good choice for book discussion groups.” —Library Journal

Download or read book The Nepalese Legacy in Short Stories written by Danny Teller and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2017-01-18 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Danny Teller is a UK national, and he was born in 1964. For most of his intrepid and industrious childhood, he lived in the UK before immigrating to Israel in the mid-1980s. In 2002 or nearly twenty years later, he left Israel and moved to America for a short and relaxing time. He subsequently moved from America to spend nearly six months teaching English in a small but very remote village in the southern part of Nepal between 2002 and 2003. By the spring of 2003, Danny decided to return to the UK, where he spent the next few years working in a new career for two large retail companies in Central London. In some of his free time, he projected considerable amounts of efforts in creative writing, online blogs, publishing and improving his overall knowledge of IT. During this time, he also made numerous but mainly pleasurable trips to the African, Asian, American, and European Continents respectively. Moreover, in recent times, such as in 2009, Danny has made another affluent move to the Peoples Democratic Republic of China. He is currently residing with his long-term companion Yvonne Wu, who, ever since the summer of 2014, became his Chinese wife. Danny is also the author of two other e-books, one of which was coauthored by Yvonne. The Eternity of Being a Global Explorer is only available as an e-book which was published in 2013; Full of Jewish Promise and Spiritual adventures, which was available in e-book format as well as in hard copy, was published in later part of 2015 or the early part of 2016.

Download or read book City of Dreams written by Pranaya Sjb Rana and published by Rupa Publications India. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buildings, roads and bridges made up the city, Kanti knew that. So did trees, rivers and hills. But he had never quite thought about people. He was told that they, too, were integral parts of a metropolis; if Kathmandu were an organism, people were its red blood cells, navigating busily through road-veins and street-arteries. City of Dreams is set in the multifaceted, fast-changing Nepali capital, Kathmandu. And through a series of deftly woven short stories, it exposes the interaction of city-dwellers with this teeming, schizophrenic metropolis, caught in the tussle between tradition and modernity. In the title story, a Kathmandu native wanders the streets of his hometown and encounters a deep secret. In 'The Presence of God', a couple bickers about faith and ambivalence, only to be confronted with an event so inexplicable that it changes the very foundations of their argument. In 'Dashain' a young man's attempt to leap into adulthood goes horribly awry. And in 'The Smoker'-the only story set outside Kathmandu, in New York City-a writer begins his quest to craft the perfect narrative; yet, even here, the Nepali city is a shadowy presence. As Kathmandu becomes the protagonist of the collection, what we see emerge is not just the skeletal outline of the metropolis, a cartographer's map, but a capital of stories. City of Dreams is one of the most startling literary debuts in recent times.
