Download or read book The Milk Lady of Bangalore written by Shoba Narayan and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The elevator door opens. A cow stands inside, angled diagonally to fit. It doesn’t look uncomfortable, merely impatient. “It is for the housewarming ceremony on the third floor,” explains the woman who stands behind the cow, holding it loosely with a rope. She has the sheepish look of a person caught in a strange situation who is trying to act as normal as possible. She introduces herself as Sarala and smiles reassuringly. The door closes. I shake my head and suppress a grin. It is good to be back. When Shoba Narayan—who has just returned to India with her husband and two daughters after years in the United States—asks whether said cow might bless her apartment next, it is the beginning of a beautiful friendship between our author and Sarala, who also sells fresh milk right across the street from that thoroughly modern apartment building. The two women connect over not only cows but also family, food, and life. When Shoba agrees to buy Sarala a new cow, they set off looking for just the right heifer, and what was at first a simple economic transaction becomes something much deeper, though never without a hint of slapstick. The Milk Lady of Bangalore immerses us in the culture, customs, myths, religion, sights, and sounds of a city in which the twenty-first century and the ancient past coexist like nowhere else in the world. It’s a true story of bridging divides, of understanding other ways of looking at the world, and of human connections and animal connections, and it’s an irresistible adventure of two strong women and the animals they love.

Download or read book Unboxing Bengaluru written by Malini Goyal and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India’s tech/startup industry today is estimated to be worth over $0.5 trillion, employing over 5 million people. And the stage for this incredible ‘tech-tonic’ rise and transformation of the country into the world’s software powerhouse, is Bengaluru. Being the backdrop to this dramatic transition, Bengaluru has changed irrevocably. The city has been through many avatars—pensioner’s paradise, PSU capital, garden city, India’s Silicon city and pub capital. Once known for secure state and federal government jobs, it is now a buzzing startup hub attracting job-seekers from India and abroad. And the new monikers will continue. From ed-tech to health-tech, mobility to EVs, Bengaluru is at the heart of the multiple shifts underway in the digital era. Truly, it is the city of new beginnings. In Unboxing Bengaluru—the first ever deep-dive into the city—Malini Goyal and Prashanth Prakash ably unravel the city’s journey and the ensuing social, behavioural, technological and consumptive changes. They look at why people are drawn to the city; how the cosmopolitan culture and multi-linguistic society gives it a distinct flavour; the parallel economies that have cropped up; how the influx of young workers have changed the city; and the fault-lines of unplanned and poorly managed growth over the decades. Richly researched and vividly written, Unboxing Bengaluru is filled with absorbing vignettes, extensive reportage and solid data. A fascinating book and a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the city, and indeed, India.

Download or read book The Cows of Bangalore written by Shoba Narayan and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the author Shoba moves back to Bangalore from Manhattan with her family, she befriends the woman she buys fresh milk from every day. Over time the two—from vastly different backgrounds—bond over not only cows but also family, food, and life. When Shoba agrees to buy the woman a new cow (why not, she needs one and Shoba can afford it), they set out looking for just the right candidate. What was at first a simple economic transaction becomes much more complicated—though never without a hint of slapstick. When Shoba starts dreaming of cows, a little ayurvedic medicine is in order (cow urine tablets, anyone?). When Shoba offers her neighbours fresh cow’s milk, we learn about the uses of milk in our culture. When Shoba wants a cow to bless her house, the spiritual and historical role the animal plays in India is explored. And when the newly purchased cow has a male calf, Shoba must find it shelter. In this delightful true story, readers are treated to an insider’s of view of India and the special place cows hold here. Equally, The Cows of Bangalore offers a window into our universal connection with food and its sources, the intricacies of female friendship, and our relationship with all creatures great and small.

Download or read book Devils in the House of God written by Mathew C. John and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2022-03-09 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Italian Abbot General, Andreae Pantaloni, who envied and resented the Prior’s excellence and his popularity among the majority of the monks, supported the conspiracy of some monks against the Prior of a monastery in India. To keep the Wayanad Monastery under his control, Andreae followed the old colonial tactic: divide and rule. With his influence of being an Italian Abbot General who was but a few steps away from the Vatican power corridors, Andreae manipulated the Holy See and procured documents against the Indian monks who had neither power nor influence. Andreae had the advantage of being White. With the European colonial attitude, Andreae invaded the spiritual frontiers of Indian soil. Andreae, with the consent of the Holy See, termed the Indian monks who stood up to him as 'dissidents'. The Vatican favored the Italin who was higher in hierarchical rank and ignored the mercy-plea of the ordinary Indian monks for help. Not having anyone to help them in their struggle for justice, the monks were forced to leave the Order. After more than a decade later, Anthony, one of the prime conspirators, ascended the throne of the Abbot General. The chief shepherd crept in through the back door. A story and history of the struggle of a group of Catholic monks in a monastery torn by conspiracy and betrayal, half-truths and falsehood, power struggle and abuse of authority. Based on real events.
