Download or read book The Ballad of Radheya written by K. R. Sharanya and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-09-16 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born to the sun god and the earthly princess, Kanti, Radheya's birthright is to inherit sovereignty over all the kingdoms of the earth. But a quirk of fate sees the new born baby abandoned on the waves of the River Ganges - not to learn of his true identity until hours before his glorious death some four decades later. Though he is raised in obscurity by humble peasants, Radheya's natural kingly qualities cannot be covered by the poverty and disadvantage of his circumstances. They shine through like sun's rays through dark storm clouds, and, against all odds, Radheya makes his mark on the world. The Ballad of Radheya tells the life story of one of the most poignant figures of the great Indian epic, the Mahabharata.

Download or read book River of Fire written by Qurratulain Hyder and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Magisterial” (Pankaj Mishra, The New York Review of Books) and “to Urdu fiction what One Hundred Years of Solitude is to Hispanic literature” (TLS) The most important novel of twentieth-century Urdu fiction, Qurratulain Hyder’s River of Fire encompasses the fates of four recurring characters over two and a half millennia. These characters become crisscrossed and strangely inseparable over different eras, forming and reforming their relationships in romance and war, in possession and dispossession. River of Fire interweaves parables, legends, dreams, diaries, and letters, forming a rich tapestry of history and human emotions and redefining Indian identity. But above all, it’s a unique pleasure to read Hyder’s singular prose style: “Lyrical and witty, occasionally idiosyncratic, it is always alluring and allusive: Flora Annie Steel and E. M. Forster encounter classical Urdu poets; Eliot and Virginia Woolf meet Faiz Ahmed Faiz” (The Times Literary Supplement).

The literature has been considered as the blueprint of social reformation. From writing an epic poem to one-word haiku ('Tundra' by Cor van den Heuvel) has been a long journey in the history of poetry writing.

Download or read book The Famine Plot written by Tim Pat Coogan and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2012-11-27 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a Biblical seven years in the middle of the nineteenth century, Ireland experienced the worst disaster a nation could suffer. Fully a quarter of its citizens either perished from starvation or emigrated, with so many dying en route that it was said, "you can walk dry shod to America on their bodies." In this grand, sweeping narrative, Ireland''s best-known historian, Tim Pat Coogan, gives a fresh and comprehensive account of one of the darkest chapters in world history, arguing that Britain was in large part responsible for the extent of the national tragedy, and in fact engineered the food shortage in one of the earliest cases of ethnic cleansing. So strong was anti-Irish sentiment in the mainland that the English parliament referred to the famine as "God's lesson." Drawing on recently uncovered sources, and with the sharp eye of a seasoned historian, Coogan delivers fresh insights into the famine's causes, recounts its unspeakable events, and delves into the legacy of the "famine mentality" that followed immigrants across the Atlantic to the shores of the United States and had lasting effects on the population left behind. This is a broad, magisterial history of a tragedy that shook the nineteenth century and still impacts the worldwide Irish diaspora of nearly 80 million people today.
