Boatman! – Take these songs from me
₹1,800.00
Authors: Gabriel Rosenstock, Masood Hussain
Boatman! take these songs from me is a compilation of mesmerizing artwork coupled with tankas. A tanka is an ancient Japanese form of poetry written in short five-line verses, with a total of 31 syllables. The painted reliefs are an aesthetic creation by Masood Hussain, who bases his artwork in this book on Mirza Ghalib’s couplets on the inevitability of grief. These works explore human suffering, the melancholy of life, and the visceral struggle against oppression..
These themes are contextualized in the poems, written by Gabriel Rosenstock, which speak of love, sacrifice, longing, and freedom. His poems also comprise an interesting orthographical inversion of the capital Y in ‘You’ and the lower case ‘i’, which subjectifies the reading experience through an outward focal lens, reflected in the play of light and hue in the paintings. The bilingual poems in Irish and English capture the essence of the paintings, ferrying the collection across to the reader. This poetically painted coffee table book is a ‘Boatman’ unto itself.

History of Private Banking in South Canara District (1906-69)
₹580.00Author: Amol Agrawal
This book explores the unique history of banking in India’s South Canara district. The origin and growth of banking in this region played a significant role in the history of Indian banking, but its contributions remain under-researched. The banks of South Canara are particularly noteworthy as they implemented financially inclusive practices long before they were made mandatory during the nationalization of banks in 1969.
The other sixteen nationalized banks were predominantly from the four metropolitan cities Bombay, Delhi, Calcutta, and Madras. The banks of South Canara warrant special attention as the prevalence of this establishment came about in a comparatively remote district. The banks also introduced and continued to offer many schemes for the benefit of the people in the region. This book traces the evolution of banks from the South Canara and how they have contributed to the rich local administrative history of the region.
