Tapaalu Mani
₹140.00
Author: Rabhindranath Tagore, Translator: Mounesh Badiger
ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರಕವಿ ರವೀಂದ್ರನಾಥ ಠಾಕೂರರ ‘ಡಾಕ್ ಘರ್’ ಬಹಳ ಪ್ರಸಿದ್ಧ ನಾಟಕ. ಮಗುವಿನ ಮನೋದೈಹಿಕ ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆಗಳನ್ನು ಕಲೆಯ ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮಕಣ್ಣಿನಿಂದ ನೋಡುವ ಎರಡಂಕದ ಪುಟ್ಟ ನಾಟಕವಿದು. ಇದು ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಸುವ ಮಾಯಾವಾಸ್ತವ ಬಹಳ ಅಪರೂಪವಾದದ್ದು. ಇದರ ಮುಖ್ಯ ಪಾತ್ರ ಮಗುವೇ ಆಗಿದ್ದರೂ ಇದರ ವಸ್ತು ಮಕ್ಕಳಿಗಳಿಂತ ಹೆಚ್ಚಾಗಿ ದೊಡ್ಡವರಿಗೇ ಅನ್ವಯವಾಗುವಂತಿದೆ. ಮೌನೇಶ ಬಡಿಗೇರರು ಇದನ್ನು ಉತ್ತರಕರ್ನಾಟಕದ ಭಾಷೆಗೆ ತಂದು ಕನ್ನಡದ ನಾಟಕವೇ ಎನ್ನುವಷ್ಟು ರೂಪಾಂತರಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಇದರ ಪ್ರಯೋಗದ ಹೊಸ ಹೊಸ ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆಗಳನ್ನು ಕನ್ನಡ ರಂಗಭೂಮಿ ಇನ್ನೂ ಶೋಧಿಸಬೇಕಿದೆ.

Reliving the memories of an Indian forester: Memoir of S Shyam Sunder
₹450.00Editor: Shiv Someshwar
Shyam Sunder’s memoir is a series of vignettes, from numerous comedic to a tragic few. The life narrated is varied and never short of excitement – being ten yards from a charging tusker or a foot away from a King Cobra; defying orders of the chief minister; being hauled up for contempt of the high court, and discussing with Indira Gandhi the best way to eat avocados. Possessed of wit and passion, the narration lays bare the hubris of popular discourse on noble forest livelihoods, and unflinchingly narrates neglect of rural communities, as well as of forests, at times by the callous imposition of rules and regulations.

Anurakte- The Enamoured
₹390.00Author: Vyasaraya Ballal Translator: Poornima Hebbar
There are many rags-to-riches stories around the city of Mumbai. However, here is a story of transformation of a woman and her true self in the city of dreams. Set in Mangalore and Mumbai of the late 1940s, Anurakte- The Enamoured is an elegantly written story of a woman and her changing worldview over a period of time. Sumithra, a young woman with ordinary dreams and aspirations, comes to the then Bombay in search of livelihood. Little did she know that her experiences in the city and her zest for an independent life would transform her into a different person. She breaks the shell and resolves not to look back. The book is a poignant tale of love, loss, betrayal, family, relationships and traditions. The culturescape of Mumbai beautifully intertwines with her dreams. It is as much a story of the vibrancy of Mumbai as it is about Sumithra’s journey towards freedom.

Ayurvedic Inheritance- A Reader’s Companion
₹650.00Author: M S Valiathan
In ancient India, learning spanned four quarters of one’s life. Learning was sought from the teacher, from one’s individual effort, from fellow students and in the last quarter, from the school of life itself. This book belongs to the third quarter for students of Ayurveda regardless of their background in medicine, science, or humanities. Apart from topics in the eight branches of Ayurveda, the book also deals with Ayurvedic Biology which seeks to study the concepts and procedures of Ayurveda with the tools of modern biology. M S Valiathan is a National Research Professor of the Government of India. He is a medical graduate from the University of Kerala and completed his postgraduate training in general surgery from the University of Liverpool and other hospitals in the UK. He did his specialisation in cardiac surgery from the Johns Hopkins and Georgetown University Hospitals in the US. He was a cardiac surgeon for over three decades. His shift to Ayurvedic studies resulted in the publication of three volumes on Caraka, Susruta and Vagbhata, and an Introduction to Ayurveda. The Department of Science and Technology set up a Task Force in Ayurvedic Biology under his chairmanship to promote research in the nascent discipline.

Dhvani and Epiphany: Essays in Criticism
₹270.00Author: Prabhaker Acharya
Dhvani and Epiphany examines the work of major Indian poets like Nissim Ezekiel and Arun Kolatkar; the struggle of young poets to find an audience; and the art of fiction. But its main focus is on the nature of creativity. How does an artist communicate his meaning? What makes a work genuinely creative? Through a sensitive exploration of poetry- ranging from the simple poems of a child, Poorna Prajna, to the complex “Byzantium Poems” of Yeats- the first seven essays try to show how a poem comes to life when it speaks to us and we listen to its dhvani and respond.
Even in fiction, it is not all realism. There is irony in exploring the paradoxical nature of reality; events taking on symbolic overtones; and epiphany, moments of illumination and insights – when surprising correspondences are seen. Writers cannot surprise and delight their audience if they themselves are not surprised and delighted by such insights.
