Nepal 2043
Nepal is poised as never before to embark on an incredible future. The past two decades has seen unprecedented economic growth despite the challenges propped up by frequent changes in government, tumultuous political transitions, earthquakes, floods, blockades and to top it all, the pandemic. There is little written about this change as negative narratives cloud contemporary writings on Nepal.
Moreover, there’s something uniquely exciting about where Nepal can go from here on. Drawing from practical experiences and academic insights, this book presents a compelling vision for Nepal’s future, exploring key areas such as hydropower, agriculture, tourism, migration and digital transformation. It argues that with a sixfold increase in GDP over two decades, Nepal is actually poised to scale even greater heights in the years to come. Positioned strategically between China and India, and supported by a robust diaspora, this not-so-small country has the potential to transform into a high-income country by 2043. There is change brewing among its youth who are ready to play a more active role in transforming the country’s politics and economy. It is, therefore, only a matter of time before all this untapped potential is leveraged. While this book is about Nepal’s potential, it is also a playbook for emerging economies.
Come, join the journey to reimagine and reintroduce Nepal to the global stage.

There’s someone at your front door – should you let them in?
Who knows what the storm will blow in…
Casey’s cabin in the wilderness is not built for a hurricane. Her roof shakes, the lights flicker, and the tree outside her front door sways ominously in the wind. But she’s a lot more worried about the girl she discovers lurking outside her kitchen window.
She’s young. She’s alone. And she’s covered in blood.
The girl won’t explain where she came from or loosen her grip on the knife in her right hand. And when Casey makes a disturbing discovery in the middle of the night, things take a turn for the worse.
The girl has a dark secret. One she’ll kill to keep. And if Casey gets too close to the truth, she may not live to see the morning.

Nij Jeevan Ki Ek Chhata / निज जीवन की एक छटा
निज जीवन की एक छटा रामप्रसाद बिस्मिल द्वारा लिखा गया आत्म-चरित्र है, जिसमें उनके पूर्वजों का जीवन वर्णित करते हुए रामप्रसाद बिस्मिल ने स्वयं अपनी कहानी लिखी है कि उन्होंने क्रांति के क्षेत्र में कैसे कदम रखा। बिस्मिल को तत्कालीन संयुक्त प्रांत आगरा व अवध की लखनऊ सेंट्रल जेल की 11 नंबर बैरक में रखा गया था। इसी जेल में उनके दल के अन्य साथियों को एक साथ रखकर उन सभी पर ब्रिटिश राज के विरुद्ध साजिश रचने का ऐतिहासिक मुकदमा चलाया गया था। बाद में बिस्मिल को गोरखपुर जेल में लाया गया। 16 दिसंबर 1927 को बिस्मिल ने अपनी आत्मकथा का आख़िरी अध्याय (अंतिम समय की बातें) पूर्ण करके जेल से बाहर भिजवा दिया। 18 दिसंबर 1927 को माता-पिता से अंतिम मुलाकात की और सोमवार 19 दिसंबर 1927 को प्रात:काल 6 बजकर 30 मिनट पर गोरखपुर की जिला जेल में उन्हें फाँसी दे दी गई। बिस्मिल के बलिदान होते ही उनकी आत्मकथा प्रकाशित हो गई थी, लेकिन तब प्रकाशित होते ही सरकार ने इस पर प्रतिबंध लगा दिया। लेकिन आज़ाद भारत में यह ऐतिहासिक पुस्तक पुन: प्रकाशित की गई है, ताकि अपने बलिदानियों के बारे में नई पीढ़ी सबकुछ जान सके।
Inshan Ya Shaitan / इंसान या शैतान
अपनी यात्राओं, बचपन, स्कॉटलैंड के चारों ओर प्रकाश स्तंभों के भ्रमण, तथा अपने मित्रों में चरित्र की प्रेरणा पाकर, रॉबर्ट लुई स्टीवेंसन ने चिंतनमय अवस्था में बैठकर एक साहसिक कहानी लिखी, जो अब तक की सर्वाधिक प्रिय कहानियों में से एक ‘इसान या शैतान’ बन गई है। यह पुस्तक एक अद्भुत रचना है, इसकी कहानी इतनी रोचक और मनोरंजनप्रद है कि पाठक एक बार इस पुस्तक को पढ़ना शुरू करता है तो पूरी पुस्तक को पढ़कर ही दम लेता है।
Tab Aur Ab / तब और अब
तब और अब उपन्यास में लेखक की दृष्टि हमारी दो पीढ़ियों पर टिकी है। एक पिछली पीढ़ी, जिसके अपने कुछ गुण, कुछ संस्कार थे जो उन्हें जोखिम उठाकर भी थामे रहती थी और दूसरी आज की पीढ़ी, जो बदली हुई परिस्थिति में घिरी हुई है और अपना संतुलन खो रही है। अनेक घटनाओं और पात्रों के ज़रिए लेखक ने हमारे समय का एक यथार्थ किंतु पूर्ण चित्र खींच दिया है।
